Duties of the Heart, The Signs And Consequences Of True Humility

Humility before the Creator obliges a man to behave meekly and unselfishly in all his transactions with his fellow-men, whether in matters of business or in any other relation of life.
The truly humble man will mourn for all the mistakes made by other men, and not triumph or rejoice over them.
