Walking Sermon   In India, there is a traditional greeting called ``Namasthe.'' It is done by folding both hands together, bowing your head slightly and saying ``Namasthe''. It means, ``the divinity in me salutes the divinity in you.''It is a sign of humility. Self-respect does not mean that I deserve more respect than others. True humility is invisible and helps build others. The tree bends when it bears the fruit. Humility is a sign of maturity. Take successes in stride, have a big heart instead of swollen head. Humility does not mean that people think less of themselves; it only means that they think of themselves less.   Many years ago at Chicago railway station, senior officials and reporters were awaiting the arrival of Nobel Prize winner. As the big man got off the train, cameras were flashing furiously. City officials were stretching to shake hands and tell him how honored they were to meet him. Having thanked them, he excused himself for a moment, walked briskly through the crowd and picked up the bags of an elderly woman who was struggling. He escorted her, carrying her bags to the bus and wished her a safe journey. He then came back to the crowd and said, ``Sorry to have kept you waiting.'' The man was world famous Dr Albert Schweitzer. Having seen this, a member of the reception committee said to one of the reporters, ``That's the first time I ever saw a sermon walking.''                                                                              *******           Have a good day    Dr.E.S.Maheswar    Consultant Pediatrician    Vijayawada; A.P
