A reader of the magazine I edit sent this little poster he wrote. It was meant for manufacturing company workers, but it applies here:
There is nothing more threatening to a boss than a leader!
How do you tell which one you are? Ask yourself why do you want to know.
If you answer that you want to know so you can change others’ opinion of you, you might be a boss.
If you answer that you want to know so that you can change yourself, you are a leader!
Why would someone begin Spiritual Practices? When you started, what was in your mind? Was it because you wanted to let other people know so that they would think of you as a saint or guru or something like that? Or, were you simply trying to change yourself?
These questions are worth pondering occasionally. Just to keep us on the right path.
