On an otherwise blank page in one of Matt’s books, the following was found:
To arrive at the perfection of humility four things are necessary:
1. to despise the world,
2. to despise no one,
3. to despise self,
4. to despise being despised by others.
To despise the things and the people that turn my soul into my self.
to “look down upon” the things and the people which turn the soul into the self.
to look down upon the things and the people which turn a soul of eternal love into a small self.
