| prevalent in the manifest world. In short, the inner will is impeded because of the images, wrong | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| from the desire itself, suffice to cover the inner will so that it cannot function. Let us | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| small or not disturbed by unhealthy motives. Your inner will is still kept from functioning fully due | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| short, the healthier your psyche, the better your inner will can function. The unhealthy psyche is always | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| -- two contrary directions -- further afflict the inner will. You may desire a certain result with | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| but in a confused and divided state your inner will cannot penetrate the unhealthy layers. What you | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| the gravest hindrance to the functioning of your inner willpower. The more the inner will is hindered | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| functioning of your inner willpower. The more the inner will is hindered, the more you try to | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| only in the outer, but never in the inner will. The inner will is pure, healthy, and | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| outer, but never in the inner will. The inner will is pure, healthy, and without doubt. It | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| in its direction and frequency. In contrast, the inner will maintains a slow and even flow, always | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| and investigate what motives and uncertainties block your inner will. This will shed an additional light on | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| doing this work. If you discover that your inner will functions in certain cases, you will feel | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| will be at one with yourself. In the inner will there is a pure strength, a strength | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| outer will that hinder the functioning of the inner will. Even if both will-currents pursue the same | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| the same goal, even if the outer and inner will desire the same thing, the mere fact | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| outer will is tense and impatient prohibits the inner will from unfolding, from floating, from affecting the | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| your personal images and misconceptions also hinder the inner will. But so do certain mass images that | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| that you have adopted because of your personal inner conflicts. I would now like to discuss one | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| also a very strong factor in prohibiting the inner will from functioning. I am speaking about your | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| not. This guilt is bound to afflict your inner will for happiness. Your unconscious concept is that | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| for you, you would rather forsake happiness. The inner conflict can be stated in this way: If | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| It becomes self-evident that this conflict frustrates your inner will and prohibits the deserved fulfillment of your | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| proper way will bring you closer to the inner contradiction. By going deeply enough, your answers will | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| be divided, in conflict, you must lose your inner peace and your sense of rightness. How can | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| the rooms. It is the same with the inner and outer actions, attitudes, and reactions of the | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| will grow in you. It will become an inner fact, but only if you have made a | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| that you have to take on against your inner conviction. Instead, you will see without a doubt | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| this misconception. Because of these wrong conclusions, your inner will cannot function, cannot flow out of you | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| time the desire for happiness manifests, a little inner voice prohibits it so that the inner will | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| little inner voice prohibits it so that the inner will is broken. The desire may be reborn | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| only tear you apart; it will destroy your inner strength, serenity, and peace. Try, all of you | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| it feels. If and when you find the inner will blocked, examine where and why you have | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| as in other areas -- may prohibit the inner will to function. Tonight I was focusing on | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| you still do the unselfish act against an inner conviction, and really out of compulsion. You want | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| to recognize your feelings, motives, and reactions; your inner, and often unconscious concepts; and, most important of | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| will you finally reach the point where your inner concept will change and the conviction of truth | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| give you further material and food for your inner progress. They contain a very important seed for | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |

| the outer will must be sustained by the inner will. To the measure the inner will functions | 65 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| by the inner will. To the measure the inner will functions, to that extent success results. As | 65 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| depend upon the clarity and strength of the inner will. In a lecture in September or October | 65 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |

| the child feels is what counts as the inner impressions accumulate to form the images -- the | 66 SHAME OF THE HIGHER SELF |
| something to be emulated. When you consider this inner process, you will again find that although the | 66 SHAME OF THE HIGHER SELF |
