Safeguard position; do not boast!

A person should not boast. Due to this he/she may be pulled down from the present high position (or deprived of possession). Or others seeing him/her boasting may go up higher in position by their further persevering attempts to rise above. It may happen the worst to a person if he/she lies about the present position or possession and goes on boasting about its existence. One must be quiescent and enjoy the benefits of high position or possession, and try to retain it.
