Yes, I think you must be one of the masters of the universe.

What can I do about it? Do you think a relationship with Jesus would help?

I have found a flower remedy which helps heal spiritual pride - I am going to try it.

I try to be humble. But somehow I cannot achieve it.





Humility is a natural progression from forgiveness and compassion.


Add: spiritual comes from spirit and spirit can not be proud or show pride.

With this spiritual pride would be an oxymoron .

You don't need to respond, I was just curious anyway.


It is too elusive to pin down.

Until one understands what he has been given can he truly be humble....

Rah nam,

Rather I would suggest that humility is a natural progression from thankfulness.
