How to Cure Pride with Humility and Establish Freedom
Where there is pride there is no freedom. We can only have a persona for other people, we can’t really have a sense of self-importance or pride if other people aren’t involved to witness it. It’s as good as only ever for others. Pride can ignite fear, anxiety, and worry because of trying to protect the persona we’ll have put on from anything that threatens to destroy it.
Humility is birthed from seeing ourselves only as a human spirit, not made by possessions and riches. Humility is the cure of pride and its chains. If we practice being humble people, we become enlightened about the freedoms we can have. We can realise that when we are humble and lack pride, we are not susceptible to taking offense, and being anxious about people around us because of possibly saying something stupid? Or we slip, or feel out of place. We’re not trying to be or protect a certain kind of image so these kinds of instances cease to matter.
Having pride is singing our own praises by wearing them. Without humility, we are deduced to being our accomplishments and what we have instead of being a wholesome eternal spirit.
Having great accomplishments and luxuries is a joy to embrace because being poor and in need is not a good thing. The problem begins when we get our sense of self from these physical possessions when we’re in fact a spirit beings. It is advisable to state this problem because we are way more than anything that can rust and be unusable or turned into trash.
My problem with the world today is that it is telling us that without luxury and riches, we will not be happy, which compels me to state that it is very possible to have it all and be unhappy. How unfortunate are we if we have fortunes but are unhappy? All this to say, placing our happiness and joy on our inner being is the key to enjoying all luxury and riches if we might have or want them. It is also essential to know that nothing good exists outside of God, Almighty, who dwells within the human spirit when invited.
Propagating a Broken System
Because of the pride of life, we want a high place in society. We ignore our spirit, where wealth emerges, to follow suit on being in great debt with college loans for a degree that won’t pay a fraction of that debt, most times. Knowledge is essential and a necessity, and educating ourselves is how we acquire knowledge. However, knowledge cannot operate without wisdom. Even most lawyers and doctors will acquire great wealth and riches once they identify as entrepreneurs, like becoming an author or starting their own practice.
What’s the point of belonging if we’re trying to belong in an environment that doesn’t conjure true happiness? Trying to fit in a society that sets standards against our natural being. This particular form of striving is found to produce stress, suicidality, anxiety, and depression. Continuing to fight to fit in a broken system is a huger proclamation of the broken system.
The Cure of the Broken System
Being enlightened is the realised combination of all the good in the world, minus the realised illusions because they’re not good for our well-being at all. Being enlightened is living by the combination of all the good in the world (from God), and your spirit—your true self is the first of that good in the world. Being enlightened is the cure for the broken systems of the world. Invest in evolving your being for a wholesome self and lifestyle.
