A TUG OF WAR
That no one likes being told what to do is not an indictment of our character. The sense of disquiet occasioned by such an admonition stems not from personal shortcoming, but goes directly to the dichotomy of our very Being: the mortal body and the immortal soul.
Custom and belief have long acquainted us with a mode of living conducive to bodily comfort, while at once antithetical to the true source of inner peace and harmony; that of the divinely God-given soul.
For our own well-being and that of others, it is clear that we have a personal responsibility to achieve a balance between worldly pursuits and spiritual enlightenment.
Mastery of thought is paramount to all else. Thus may we see only the good in others, and thus are our thoughts transcended to a higher spiritual plane whereby we instinctively manifest God’s Goodness and Love. — Garry D. Kilbourn
