Humility is the Stepping-Stone to Success

Humility is an important virtue which everyone must have. Humility means treating elders with respect and abiding by their words with obedience. The spirit of humility with which we treat our parents will win their blessings and support. Many devotees of Baba served Him only to get their desires fulfilled. But only a few devotees served Baba with love and felt that His word was law unto them. They were an epitome of humility of the heart and self-surrender. Though Ravana was a great king and well-versed in scriptures and spiritual wisdom, he lacked good character and challenged Lord Rama, fought fiercely and got killed at Rama's hands. Contrarily, Vibhishana, brother of King Ravana, who was a man of humility, was enthroned as a successor to Ravana. The one with humility will emerge victorious in every field by the divine support. 


Sometimes the decisions we take may prove wrong or upset us. But success smiles on the obedient ones who follow the word of God. It will do good to the one who is obedient to his Guru and God, whether he lives a spiritual or a householder's life. Mere devotion to God alone cannot ensure one's liberation. Only devotion enjoined with humility of heart can enable one to swim across the sea of worldly life. Humility ensures success whether one treads the path of devotion, wisdom or work.
