The Essence of Humility: Hidden Truth

“Could we consider the Incarnation, or Christ washing His Disciples’ feet, acts of humility? Was making a whip of cords, driving everyone out of the temple, or making Himself equal with God acts of vainglory?

People act according to their priorities. If their primary aim is receiving honor from one another, their understanding and spiritual views become poisoned accordingly. However, if their purpose for existence is God, their understanding and spiritual views become blessed with clarity, discernment and Christ’s Panoramic Vision. An action based in unconditional Love, as all of Christ’s actions were, regardless of whether it seems it or not, is deeply humble.”

In an age characterised by a “me-first” culture of self-fulfilment, competitiveness and egoism, His Grace Bishop Emilianos of Meloa unveils a timeless hidden path to true spiritual fulfilment in his collection of talks and writings on the virtue of humility.

This book is not just a guide to understanding humility, it is a call to discover our true selves, made in the image and likeness of our Creator. The path of humility is not an easy one, but it is the true path that leads to ultimate unity with God. May the teachings contained within illuminate the way of every reader who sincerely and lovingly seeks God.
