The Measure of One’s Greatness

237Question: It is written that one’s greatness is measured by one’s measure of Dvekut (adhesion) with the Creator, meaning one’s measure of annulment before the Creator. What does the measure of one’s greatness mean?

Answer: To the degree a person can rise above his egoism, meaning to ask the Creator to annul his egoism and to replace his property of reception with the property of bestowal and love in connection with others, is the degree of his spirituality.
