Humility and simplicity are the characteristics of greatness. Think:”I am nothing”. The coconut feels, “Because of me, the dish was tasty”. The cook says, “My skill made it good”. The fire would say, “I made the dish well-cooked”. But all ability is God’s.
Humility is God’s nature. He is the universal servant. See God in everything and accept His will. It is not the ego that should be made big, but the real “I”.
The rainwater falls on a mountaintop, it does not remain there. It flows down to the river below. The low-lying areas receive water from all sides.
As soon as you realize you are small, the ego disappears. Only by trying to become smaller than the smallest, does one become greater than the greatest. By developing the attitude of being everyone’s servant, one becomes the master.
If you can stop insisting that others should respect and honour you, honour and respect will come to you unasked. Be humble and patient and you will see how things around you change.
Everybody wants to become a leader. No one wants to become a servant. A real servant is a real leader who serves the people without ego and egocentric desires. Real greatness lies in humility and simplicity.
