[QUOTE="pk70, post: 89525, member: 5889"] [B]Namjap ji[/B] [B]Just want to share in reference to your quoted Shabad of kabeer ji. He says a lot in concept of humbleness, he uses metaphor for humbleness but himself points if that kind of humbleness still hurts others, and one changes stances, it remains in question. Actually humbleness is to be like the Lord who is beyond ego anger etc, who is totally “NIRVAIR”, who love all regardless what his created beings do. It is depth of humbleness, followers to understand. In the aad ji’s quote the wise guy is just saying” blend accordingly instead of being in opposition; in Gurbani” sam kar” taking good or bad equally is a advice- weapon to defeat influence that leads the mind to the state of unbalance.
