A
truly learned man neither blames others nor becomes flush with excitement
because of his inherent or achieved strength nor does he become shaky in the
face of difficult circumstances.
One must be as afraid of one’s ego or false sense of pride as one should be
afraid of a rabid dog. Just as you will not touch poison or a poisonous snake,
cultivate detachment from persons achievements, also be aloof from persons who
do not believe in achievements or success, and more important direct the
activities of your mind and heart towards God.
Too much trust and
dependence on others will make you utterly helpless and miserable. Look within
yourself for direction not towards others. Your honesty will strengthen your
determination and this strengthened determination will take you to your desired
goal.
