Guest guest Posted July 31, 2000 Report Share Posted July 31, 2000 SRIMATHE RAMANUJAYA NAMAHA! Respected Bhagavathas, Adiyen have something to say in general, not mentioning any "kind of duel" going around here in the list. Unfortunately Modesty and Ego do not go hand-in-hand. The first and foremost thing our Acharyas taught us was: NOT TO HAVE ANY AHANKARAS LIKE CASTE, LINEAGE, AGE, VIDYA, EXPERIENCE and even about KAINKARYAS. Lives of our Azhwars and of many Acharyas have shown that they always preferred to stay as "UNSUNG HEROS". One should consider himself/herself lower than "Thondar Adi Podi"(Dust of Bhagavathas' feet). However learnt one maybe or however senior one may be or however blessed one may be...........Everything is in vain, when one does not submit himself and his actions unto God, rather takes the pride in himself. Also making too much of proclaimations or tending to be very very polite and modest by words............May be a simple "show off" of his pride........its an indirect way of saying "You see, I am the most Modest of all". Showing modesty more in actions rather than in mere words is what one should practise. Adiyen understand that everyone in this list, very well knows of the above things already. Its not Adiyen's intention nor Adiyen have the right to reiterate or to pin point anyone like........"Look you are not like this". It is just Adiyen wanted to share Adiyen's views.
