The Buddha pointed out that there are three paths of Pride which are: thinking I am better than the others; thinking I am less than the others; and thinking I am just as good as the others. Each of these leads to more suffering for myself and others. What then can we do? Where does this leave us? This is yet another example of the wonderful way in which the Buddha challenges us to “step outside the square” so to speak and find a new way of being and a new fruitful way of doing.
