Some husbands think, "This is my wife," or a parent thinks "This is my child." From a spiritual perspective, this is a misconception. The higher truth is: "This wife is God's beloved daughter, entrusted in my care. And the way I serve God is by giving her respect, protection, appreciation and empowerment. This is what God wants me to give his child."
Radhanath SwamiThe more one makes spiritual advancement, one feels humble and as one's devotion is superficial that much he feels that he is a great devotee.
