NOT STRIPPING DOWN TO OUR CORE HUMANITY STANDS IN THE WAY -
"To get completely
away from our aver-
sion to the idea of being
humble, to gain a vision of
humility as the avenue to true
freedom of the human spirit,
to be willing to work for hu-
mility as something to be
desired for itself, takes
most of us a long,
long time." (12
& 12, p. 73)
SUCH AS, REMOVING OUR SELFISH DESIRES FOR ANSWERS COMES NEXT -
"When we ask
our Higher Power
to remove these short-
comings, we ask for free-
dom from anything which
limits our recovery. We
ask for help because
we cannot do it a-
lone." (It Works,
How & Why,
p. 49)
"Freedom
from the de-
sire for an an-
swer is essen-
tial to the un-
derstanding
of a pro-
blem."
- Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895 - 1986) Indian spiritual author / guru
HP - Higher Power - is any power greater than oneself, like Nature, the Cosmos, or even the legal system.
