| BkV:16.II.7 | Just as in the nations of the world there exist not only threats or conflicts with other external nations, but also internal conflicts among the governed, which can cause an implosion as great as that which external forces can provoke, the same happens in the soul. External forces seem to attack the soul, but there are also inner forces that seem able to intimidate it. With such conditions it is no wonder that the world is so crazy, worn, and tired. It need not be so. |
