Superiority Complex Leads to Evil CONTENTS

English book, p. 358

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

There are two kinds of insects. One is the bee which is always searching for fragrance and sweetness and nectar. In whatever flower it senses fragrance and nectar, it immediately reaches it. In this way, it gathers the sweetness of the flower, so that it may give it to human beings. Another example is that of the common fly, which is interested only in filth. It flies about all the time solely to find dirt and have its share of it. Similarly, there are also two kinds of human beings. One who loves goodness and when he interacts with others, he takes positive things from them and conveys them to other people and becomes an ambassador of goodwill and positivity. He is the good human being. Such a person is desired by nature. All the opportunities of nature are destined for such people. A different kind of person is one whose soul finds sustenance in saying negative things about people. When such a person meets others, he is interested only in finding out their shortcomings. If he does not find any shortcomings or any negative points, he concocts something negative about them and then goes and gossips about it to others.
