Day 15 - Overcoming Arrogance and Cultivating Righteousness (Orchos Tzaddikim | Arrogance 6)
Unlock the secrets to cultivating true humility and dismantling the deceptive feeling of arrogance with our latest episode of "Ways of the Righteous." We'll guide you through the subtle yet powerful ways the Yetzer Hara, or evil inclination, manipulates our sense of self-worth, making arrogance appear not just acceptable but almost noble. Understand how the craving for honor can cloud our judgment and lead us down a path of self-deception. We'll share insights on recognizing and combating these impulses, demonstrating that true righteousness is rooted in humility and genuine acts of kindness that naturally earn respect and divine approval.
Learn how to keep your good deeds pure and meaningful without falling into the trap of self-promotion. Drawing from the wisdom of King Solomon's Proverbs (27:2), we discuss why it’s important that others, not ourselves, recognize our good actions. We highlight the danger of seeking validation for our deeds and how this can signify a rebellion against the Almighty. Through Jewish traditions, we underscore that sharing good deeds is only permissible to inspire others, not for self-glorification. This episode is a heartfelt call to maintain humility and keep our actions between us and the Almighty, securing genuine respect and divine favor. Join us for a profound discussion on the path to true humility and righteousness.
