of Humility...
seems it simply is one of the sidhhis (ascetic majesties) in this lil donkey devotee view... even if not sure it is spelled out in the formal treastises (but it may...)
Humility seems natural to arise,
when we increasingly view without boundaries the qualities (good fruit and bad fruit) in any Human form...
are seen less and less identified with individual, but with Divine Laws and Divine manifestations of the Cosmic Play...
when we begin to "view" (by Grace) the Soul (instead of the Man\Woman garment),
it becomes so liberating...
For those that overeat, drink alchohol or drugs, or bound to pretty faces, or steal, or lie... that is not the Soul, that is not what we see as the Being... We see the Beam of Light pure, and simply also observe it has been defracted and dissipated and bent some of it's light into an outer garment of these dramas... and those that are playing out those roles are serving "me"... that I not fall to that degree again... that little me, grows in Virya (Moral Courage) and if little me liberates from those seed tendencies (even if they be of little gravity compared to a great alchoholic, or criminal -- well, when little me liberates, it is like a drop of a rock in the pool... and the ripples are sensed by the others in the pool... there arises in all, a portion of insight for liberation....
but mostly it is that other Beamlets are serving me, taking on the roles that little me can no longer stomach... I renounce nearly out of a 'weakness' in a way... for even wealth, and vitality are renounced... we give all fruit (ripe or rotten, sweet or sour) to the Divine... for there is none but the Divine anyways...
so humility, seems simply a matter of the Divine Ascetic Majesties, Truth simply settles upon the garment, further and further manifesting at times... (but always in Chitta Heart Nucleus)...

Well thought out insight Namaste2All. especially this part:
those that are playing out those roles are serving "me"... that I not fall to that degree again... that little me, grows in Virya (Moral Courage) and if little me liberates from those seed tendencies (even if they be of little gravity compared to a great alchoholic, or criminal -- well, when little me liberates, it is like a drop of a rock in the pool... and the ripples are sensed by the others in the pool... there arises in all, a portion of insight for liberation....
Others serving us thru their involvement in Maya. I'll keep that in mind next time i feel as though something or someone is difficult. Very interesting outlook Namaste2All.
