"A lion saw its image in the limpid lake; it grew envious of another lion, as strong, as young, as fierce as itself. It assayed to destroy it, by jumping on it and tearing it to pieces. It was drowned in the process; that is the fruit of envy.
Others, who are our own images, arouse envy and lead to disaster. Bhakthi or the attitude of devotion and dedication makes you humble and kill envy; Jnana or the awareness of your being an integral part of God who is all this makes you kind with all and there is no place for distinction, which breeds envy."
