The grandeur of a consistently virtuous man who exercises self-control,Is great than that of the mighty mountains.
It
is
impossible
to
measure
the
greatness
of
a
truly
humble
man
with
self-restraint
who
does
not
deviate
from
the
path
of
rectitude.
The
word
'Nilai'
here
refers
to
the
state
of
a
good
householder,
who
practices
all
the
domestic
virtues
effectively
and
has
reached
the
status
of
a
'Sanron'.
The following Biblical lines would be of great relevance in this context.
'blessed
are
the
meek
for
they
shall
inherit
the
earth.'
(Sermon
on
the
Mount-Matt.
5:5)
'Whoever
humbles
himself
like
this
child;
he
is
the
greatest
in
the
kingdom
of
heaven'.
(Matt. 18:4)
The chaos that results when a man loses self-control is beautifully portrayed in the proverbs thus:
'A
man
without
self-control
is
like
a
city
broken
into
and
left
without
walls'.
(Proverbs 25:28)
