How do I escape the ego's insecurity?

Humility is the modesty that comes naturally when you see how vast creation is in all its infinite abundance. In India it is said that humility bows down before God like a tree laden with ripe fruit. The ego fears being made humble. The "I" is insecure and does not welcome being taken down to a lower position.

The way to escape this attitude is by appreciating the richness of yourself. Within you the drama of life plays itself out as in no one else. You can access the full range of experience, including experiences of pain and suffering. Even as you move to heal yourself, remain aware that the play of light and dark adds to the richness of life.
