Humility and Grace

Humility is a rare virtue. We need to cultivate it. Humility means living with the sense that we are all part of Creation.When we recognise that all are interconnected, we begin to act in a humble manner towards others. When we get rid of our ego, pride and vanity disappear. We no longer hurt anyone.We realise that we are just humble recipients at God's door, and even those gifts that distinguish us from one another are but gifts from the Lord.By realising God's love, we develop humility . Then we see God's hand in everything. We recognise that God is the moving force. When we develop humility of spirit, we no longer suffer from pride -of wealth, position, knowledge or power.
One way to cultivate humility is through meditation. As we come in contact with the light and sound of God within, we radiate love, humility and peace. We want to serve others selflessly. We become like a lighthouse in the stormy sea of life.When boats try to find their way during a storm in the ocean, they always look towards the lighthouse. Once we see the light of God within and we realise that we are a part of divinity , we stand like a lighthouse, giving strength to others.
As we are filled with this outpouring of love from God, we find that it brings stillness into our lives. The state of happiness and bliss not only lasts during the time we meditate, but continues even when we come out of meditation. This state brings about tremendous changes for the better in our day-to-day life and has positive influence on life around us.
