[Advaita-l] Meaning of this verse

[sriram]

Dears
Ithink it is something about being proud of without reason.ShapharI swims in 
a small pond  of depth just a thumb length whereas rohitaH swims in a vast 
water source like a lake.RohitaH does not feel puffed up. One need not feel 
proud of his placement attained by birth or nature.R.Krishnamoorthy
