Inner Strength

                                                          I believe that We as INDIVIDUALS can succeed if we  are able to summon Bravery and Courage to be used in dressed Combat, against the Forces of Ignorance, Stupidity, and Injustice .    Exactly HOW are we to 'summon' Bravery and Courage ?   I submit what follows :   (.)

                                                                        61.  Chung Fu  /  Inner Truth

                                           "The force of inner truth depends chiefly on inner stability and preparedness .  From this state of mind springs the correct attitude toward the outer world .   But if a man should try to cultivate secret relationships of a special sort, it would  deprive him of his inner independence .  The more reliance he places on the support of others, the more uneasy and anxious he will become as to whether or not these secret ties are really tenable.   In this way, the inner peace and the force of inner truth are lost ." 

                       It is necessary to "see" "Inner Truth" as Inner STRENGTH .   "Stability" is to be perceived as the "Belief in one's self" , the Mental Condition of Confidence and that of Resolve aka Determination .  Elsewhere I have expressed [Human] Will as "A Force of Nature" and declared that this Force is Universal, that is, within the Scope and Measure of Each and Every Individual .   We ALL 'have' it ,  we would not be Human if "IT" were absent .  

                      Devoted Buddhists insist on this --->  "We are all Buddhas" and Christianity adds, "The Spirit of GOD lies within us" .   All we must do is BELIEVE and when Belief is short in coming, we turn to AA and IT'S Profound Wisdom :   "Fake it until you make it."   We can translate fake to be >pretend< and also "Make Believe" .   I love this .
