The Unification Epicenter of True Lightworkers

I think being humble is the hardest or easiest way to be in life, it depends on how much rooted you are to the ground. I'm bringing this up, because for me it is not easy and I have quite the hard time dealing with duality and ego... I was looking up ways to be practice humility and I came across some words of wisdom coming straight from Mother Theresa. I thought I might share with you guys and ask you, how to you practice humility? :)


Mother Teresa reportedly gave her Sisters the following rules to follow
in order to practice humility:

Speak as little as possible about yourself;
Keep busy with your own affairs and not those of others;
Avoid curiosity;
Do not interfere in the affairs of others;
Accept small irritations with good humor;
Do not dwell on the faults of others;
Accept censures even if unmerited;
Give in to the will of others;
Accept insults and injuries;
Accept contempt, being forgotten and disregarded;
Accept injuries and insults;
Be courteous and delicate even when provoked by someone;
Do not seek to be admired and loved;
Do not protect yourself behind your own dignity;
Give in, in discussions, even when you are right;
Choose always the more difficult task.

It's not easy to turn the other cheek and as listed there, there's a lot of cheek turning to be had lol. Those are all direct affronts to the ego and take a lot of practice. It is important to remind yourself that taking these actions is not letting yourself be walked on, but is the ability to detach yourself and make choice in experience.

Those are all very tough nuts... thank you :)

love & joy
