“You compare yourself with others on the basis of virtues. Do not compare yourself with anyone. Simply recognize all the virtues you appreciate in others and realize that those virtues are present in you in seed form. You only have to nurture them.”
~ Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Celebrating Silence
Isn’t it nice to know that we have all that potential? That all the good we see in others, it’s there within us as well.
You know, my friend, this would imply that by looking for the good in others, we’d be bringing out the good in ourselves. Well, wouldn’t that be nice?!
