Modesty

Modesty

King Solomon said, “Pride wrecks havoc on man, but modesty gives him the crown of honor.” Modesty is the successful consequence of man’s knowledge. Modesty is the expression of gentleness, friendliness, and lawful attitude in man’s conduct and behavior. It is one of the most important and rarest qualities of human life. It is virtual, the behavioral social outcome of a wise and satisfied mind. It ensures the balanced and beautiful growth of man’s mind, and spreads it socially in a balanced way. Nothing can substitute the appeal of modesty to his social and mental perfection. To build up a habitual modesty, the role of practice and self-will is stronger than that of knowledge. Moreover, as far as the stages of life are concerned childhood has o alternative in ensuring the proper building up of modesty in man’s mind. If modesty is taught to a child from its very childhood by both oral teaching and examples, then optimum results can be achieved.
