How Humiliating

“If you want to be free of your passions, your medicine is to be simple, humble; to take in, like the good earth, both the rain and the hail along with the rubbish and the spittle. When one accepts external humiliations, he's quickly freed from his old self...Blessed one, when you are given an opportunity for humility, accept it. This is how humility is acquired.”
St. Paisios The Athonite
