As an Individual what defines us is not the number of materialist possessions we have or the title which we posses at our offices but the number of admirers we have because of our humility and humane nature. So why is it that as we gain success our humility diminishes?\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cCruelty is an instinct in animals but a choice in Humans – It is humility that makes us Humane\u201d ~ K Srini<\/em><\/p>\n

Hanumanji\u2019s avatar which he has adorned time and time again as he has displayed\/demonstrated these virtues for the benefit of others.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Ramabhakta (meaning – the ardent devotee of Lord Rama)<\/li>\n
  2. Sarvamayavibhanjana (meaning the destroyer of all illusions)<\/li>\n
  3. Sanjeevananagahatre (meaning The one who carries the Sanjivani hill)<\/li>\n
  4. Deenabandhava (meaning The Protector of the Downtrodden)<\/li>\n
  5. Kaamaroopin (meaning One who can change his form at his will)<\/li>\n
  6. Dhruta Vrata<\/strong> (meaning One who observes a rigorous discipline)<\/li>\n
  7. Karagrahavimoktre (meaning One who frees from the prison)<\/li>\n
  8. Prasannatmane (meaning One with a cheerful disposition)<\/li>\n
  9. Sankatamochana (meaning the remover of all sorrows and hurdles)<\/li>\n
  10. Sagarotharaka (meaning One who leapt over the ocean)<\/li>\n
  11. Chiranjivi (meaning The Immortal one)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Dhruta Vrata<\/strong> (meaning – One who observes a rigorous discipline<\/em>)<\/p>\n

    More often, discovering the \u2018Purpose\u201d of life is a long race just like the marathon. In the process of this journey, we also observe that on the road to success, we are faced with many bumps and tempting parking lots (distractions)<\/p>\n

    Distraction and Discipline are the two opposite sides of the same coin. In this age of social media and information overload, it is quite easy to get off tracked and get distracted from the goals\/tasks which we are focusing on. The worst being, even, getting influenced and losing the very sight of what we intended to achieve. Staying true to what we believe in and what we set forth requires a rigorous discipline.<\/p>\n

    The 3 questions\/tests for us to answer from the prism of Humility test are:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Is it not often that we notice that sheer intelligence as the barometer for success, but hard work with discipline is not?<\/li>\n
    • Rigorous discipline is the secret sauce in this era of distractions from social media to free flow of excess irrelevant information\/data and to being dragged into opinionated endless discussions and so on.<\/li>\n
    • Staying focus on the goal irrespective of all kind of temptations (Obstacles faced by Hanumanji on the way to Lanka)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
