Introduction
Humility is internal and devotional respect towards those personalities and objects deserving respect. Actually, humility is just a natural inherent virtue of the soul (Atman).
It is inherent in the soul with other virtues like knowledge, faith,
contentment, forgiveness and so on. The question may be asked that
if it is so, why is it not experienced in daily life? The reply is that the
common people of the world are not aware of their own inherent virtue.
People do not pay attention to this inner
and natural virtue but go on constantly nourishing its rival infatuation in the form of pride.
Thus ignorance and perverse practices are the cause of non-attainment
of the virtue of humility.
