Monastic Reflections - Humility

To shine is not the same as enlighten.

make sure that people do not name the monastery after you instead of a saint.

The centre of the monastery is God's place; do not put yourself in the wrong chair.


If the righteous sin 7 time a day, do not be surprised - even though you are a leader - that you sin 7 and a half times.

When certain people question your character, do not respond by doubting theirs.
