I am the lowest of them all

Not to be mistaken; I do not see myself as pond scum.
But the importance of having a humble attitude.

In terms of spiritual practice, the ego shouldnt never come into play/existence. We should always have a humble attitude and view others as more spiritually mature and advanced as us.

If your reply/thought to this post is: "But I have practiced more/longer/harder, etc", you have already put yourself down. Because a true practitioner would never compare, and would be happy for their peers and their achievements. If you profess to wanting to help all sentient beings, you would find joy in their practice and the issue of comparison would never arise...
