Indeed, in our age of social media where it’s a constant race to appear the best, to put up a front, to show others a false image (and to show ourselves a false image) cultivating humility is perhaps more important now than ever.
Know Thyself then is an invaluable resource for a prideful age. Adapted from Rev. Fr. Cajetan da Bergamo’s classic Humility of Heart and supplemented with writings from the saints and powerful scripture passages, Know Thyself will reinvigorate you each day in the struggle to be like Christ, to be “meek and humble of heart.”
This beautiful hardcover book—with updated language for the contemporary reader and reorganized with a logical progression—is perfect for everyday use. New features that help you put your reading into spiritual action include:
- Saint quotes for every day followed by a short meditation on humility
- Prayers for Humility and Scripture Verses on Humility
- Guided meditations that will bring about a deeper self-knowledge
Spend the next 100 days with this book—spend the next 100 days contemplating, meditating upon, and growing in humility—and your problems, your struggles will improve. That’s the power of humility, and that’s the power of Know Thyself.

Know Thyself
I am thoroughly enjoying this book of meditations with some of the most outstanding saint quotes! The spiritual depth is enlightening and to my understanding. Thank you very much for the publication of this book!

Excellent book
Ive probably bought 20 of Humility of Heart to give away. Then I discovered Know Thyself and promptly order some to give away. Its hugely beneficial to accompany the aforementioned book. Just an excellent read.

Great short meditations with some thought
I like the format, short meditations written on Saints quotes, read one a day, the same several times or a few at a time. Its also an easy book to journal to. Is what I was hoping for in the purchase.

Excellent and inspiring...
I am a true Tan Fan and recently purchased this book. I am still currently reading it and only read one meditation per evening with my nightly prayers. It's a beautiful book, very professionally printed, and full of wonderful spiritual insights. I highly recommend for anyone pursuing humility of heart.

Very nice
Very nice little format for doing daily meditations on humility. The quotes from the saints are always relevant to the meditation and add a little extra to think about. I do own Humility of Heart also but prefer this format. The book also contains prayers by various saints for humility and bible passages as well.
