Humilation and arrogance

When we understand
That we do not understand everything
Then humility begins
While arrogance retreats

Fights in the world

 

 

Everywhere we see fights
Brother against brother
Sister against siser
Family fights

Everywhere we see fights
People mark their rights
Fight for interests, religions
In thoughts, talks and actions

Parties are against parties
Political oponents, smarties
Groups against groups
Countries against countries

Cultures compare, measure, judge
Who is better who is worse
Attitude of arrogance, anti-humilation
Pride in fights

Where to find this evil behaviour?
In us, in each of us…
But mankind is one
Not yet done

Our fight should not be against others
Not against sisters and brothers
Each of us should fight
Own ego, mind – becoming love and light

Praise and Pride

Just because we are excellent in one field
This does not mean we are familiar with all disciplines
However, we often act as if we would be
Thus we deceive ourselves and our fellow human beings.

In this way, we are carried away
In a torrent of arrogance

Are open to praises
Equally averse to criticism

Addicted to being acknowledged…

Humble science

Science researches and has questions
That confirms that it does not know everything
Nevertheless it pretends
As if it had an answer to everything

A little more reverence is needed
For the millions and millions of treasures
Which life still keeps hidden

Especially there where it is not expected…

Humility

As long as we think we are the good guys
Humility is still far away…

Hidden truth

Every quarrel hides a truth:
To know better than the other

Arrogance has never been part of the truth
There is oil and fire in between…

Surrender of the proud intellect

Only when we deeply have understood
That we cannot understand everything
The river bows to the ocean…

Arrogance and Pride

 

 

If we believe
To have tamed our mind
That we smile at
Then it is our mind
That smiles in our face

Another mask
A mirror of our thoughts
Prisoners of our mind…

Lack of Knowledge

 

 

How can a person lead people,
If he cannot lead himself
If he doesn’t know himself?
Then how can he know other people
To guide them properly?

And when this person says:
“O yes, I know myself!”
Then it is sure:
He does not know himself…

Lost in arrogance

 

 

Good and evil kindled
Fire of the mind
Are we sitting in the front row
As the good guys, play the game
Justice: better and worse
A trick of cunning treachery
To reap advantages
Willing to die in this battle
As a slave of the mind

To measure ourselves in search of adversaries
Emerging as a winner
Judging, appraising
Scale of equality
Weighing in our favour
Without the host’s bill
Same gambling everywhere:
With haggling, bargaining
To place one’s own person
In the right light

Lost seems to be who wins
Who doesn’t respect himself anymore
Looking for money and power
To classify man, use man
As a means to an end
An operation without dignity
Compassion, humanity
As lost humility
Intoxication of one’s own arrogance…

Is such a person trustworthy?

 

 

How can we believe a leader
When he accuses many of lying
And spreads countless lies himself?…

Who is not able to see his own mistakes…

It is not seldom that…

 

 

It is not seldom that we show ourselves
As the good, the infallible ones
Looking down on others
Measure them, judge them

It is not seldom that we compare ourselves
With people around us
Loading guilt on their shoulders
To rise above them

It is not seldom that our gaze
Is dyed in Higher and Better
To demonstrate flawlessness
Humiliate our fellow men

It is not seldom that we exhibit
How great and good we are
Catching applause, reward
Carelessly, arrogantly

It is not seldom that we seek victims
Who pay the price
For our fallibilities
That we hide from others
