\nBy Krishna-kripa das.
\nOne should not be envious of those less advanced but should be compassionate toward them.
\nServing is the best way to counteract envy.
\nForgetting the source of our qualities and achievements causes us to be proud.
\nOur envy of others derives from our envy of Krishna, and that can be removed by service.
\nIf we are not compassionate to those who do not have Krishna consciousness and give them the opportunity then we are acting enviously of them.
\nSometimes on book distribution we want to benefit the people but they deal with us in such a way we give up on them, and we find our compassion has a limit, but if we were completely not envious that would not be.
\nBhakti Tirtha Swami said that if you are not envious you will go beneath someone and push them up, not considering advancing your own position.<\/p>\n
Helping someone comes from appreciating their value not from thinking we are superior and have something to give.<\/p>\n
Glorifying those we are envious of counteracts the envy, but it is hard to do.<\/p>\n
The Christian saint Theresa describes the most elevated persons see themselves as least qualified just as we understand from our tradition the maha-bhagavata, highest devotee, does.<\/p>\n
Someone may have done so many things, but they are all insignificant compared to Krishna\u2019s mercy.<\/p>\n
It is not that we just offer respect to the Supersoul in others and neglect the souls themselves.<\/p>\n
If I am superior and I am happy about it, or if I am inferior and I am unhappy about it, it is really the same thing.<\/p>\n
Every soul has the potential to please Krishna eternally, so how valuable they are! Thus I should serve them.<\/p>\n
We are not just receiving from superiors, but we receiving in all our relationships.<\/p>\n
Relationships that are give, give, give, or take, take, take, are imbalanced.<\/p>\n
When you are envious of someone you are distant from them, but when you serve them you start developing affection for them, and then they start developing affection for you.<\/p>\n
Attention is the beginning of love.<\/p>\n
