The ‘Status’ of the individual remains as long as the individual holds that position. All the respect and the frills attached with that position one enjoys till the position remains with the individual; once the individual is remove from that position all the trapping disappear. Once that is gone the individual gets what she/he deserves.</span></span></span></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="color: #000080"></span></span></span></p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="color: #000080"></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="color: #000080"></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="color: #000080"><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="color: #000000"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">‘Stature’ is intrinsic to the individual.

The ‘Status’ of the individual remains as long as the individual holds that position. All the respect and the frills attached with that position one enjoys till the position remains with the individual; once the individual is remove from that position all the trapping disappear. Once that is gone the individual gets what she/he deserves.[/color][/size][/font] [size=3][color=#000000][font=Times New Roman] [/font][/color][/size] [size=3][color=#000000][font=Times New Roman]‘Stature’ is intrinsic to the individual. It results from the values and beliefs the individual holds which give the individual a live based on virtues and principles. Guru Sahib tells us that ‘Karta Purakh’ bestows the virtues on all who deserve.
