In English
To regard the qualities of the as being cheap is due to our own ignorance. Because we are unable to understand the inner meaning of what they have left for us and are unable to recognise their greatness, we are thinking that these people were ordinary people. When we look at great people from our own inferior position, we think that their and their achievements are very small. This is so, only because of your inability to grasp the greatness in them. The divine aspect is present in all human beings. If you regard the little spark which is in you as very great and are conceited about it, you must also feel how great the same spark, which is present in everyone like you, can be. You may feel that you are a very big person. But this is looking at it from your own position. When you look at the ocean from your own position, it looks like a big thing. But when you raise your own position higher and higher, then look at the ocean, then you think the ocean is also small. Only when you yourself can rise to a higher position, will you realise that all the living things in the world are very small.
