Today: “We are at the crossroads of a real revolution.  Its imminent outcome will depend on the  integrity and motives of those in charge.” – From the I Ching

We are at the crossroads of a real revolution.  Its imminent outcome will depend on the  integrity and motives of those in charge.

Radical changes require adequate authority. A man must have inner strength as well as influential position. What he does must correspond with a higher truth and must not spring from arbitrary or petty motives; then it brings great good fortune. If a revolution is not founded on such inner truth, the results are bad, and it has no success. For in the end men will support only those undertakings which they feel instinctively to be just.

Tao Te Ching – Verse 31 – Weapons are the tools of violence; all decent men detest them.

Tireless vigilance and an answer to every challenge — that is the uneasy Seat of Power occupied by the conqueror.
