| emotional reactions make them completely incapable of deciding inwardly, and they do not even know it since | 2 DECISIONS AND TESTS |

| often suppressed. Then the same tantrums may continue inwardly in the adult with no age limit, and | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
| The right attitude would be to turn about inwardly and seek what can be learned from the | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| by giving up the battle against it, relaxing inwardly, and concentrating on the cause in you that | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |
| yours is being offered, when you feel angry inwardly or when you feel the great need to | 51 IMPORTANCE OF FORMING INDEPENDENT OPINIONS |

| to speak. The outer active side is passive inwardly, and vice versa. This applies not only to | 59 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| the person who is ready to grow up inwardly. The very reluctance to assume adulthood and self-responsibility | 61 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| and attempts to achieve it to some degree inwardly. In rare moments it can happen. But all | 62 MAN AND WOMAN |
| the unhealthy layers. What you outwardly wish you inwardly question. Not only do you doubt that you | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| find yourself unhappy and frustrated. You often rebel inwardly and try to force the people around you | 64 OUTER WILL AND INNER WILL -- MISCONCEPTION ABOUT SELFISHNESS |
| about it. But the effect would wear off. Inwardly the gnawing question would come up all over | 65 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| try to give up the fault compulsively, while inwardly you cling to it for the reason I | 65 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |

| may act outwardly in the right way, but inwardly the motivations may be selfish, vain, unloving, and | 99 FALSIFIED IMPRESSIONS OF PARENTS: THEIR CAUSE AND CURE |
