Simplified Meaning:

Imagine you have a cup that is already full of water. You can't add anything new to this cup because it's full. Now, think about this cup as your heart or mind, and the water inside it as your pride. When you're full of pride, there's no room for other good things, like kindness, peace, or love. In real life, if someone is always thinking they're better than everyone else, they might not be able to accept help or advice. They might miss out on learning new things or forming close relationships because they think they already know everything. For instance, if a student always believes they're smarter than their classmates, they might ignore the teacher's lessons or not work well in group projects. This attitude can prevent them from actually learning and growing. To make room for the positive things that can truly enrich your life, you need to let go of pride. By being humble, open-minded, and willing to learn, you're more likely to experience happiness and personal growth. For example, being open to suggestions at work can lead to better teamwork and more successful projects. So, letting go of pride allows you to receive more good things, just like emptying that full cup makes room for fresh, clean water.
