We have control over the work of our hands, but little over the working of the soul. But yet we must yield to it, for without it we have nothing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The Buddha taught that we're not actually in control, which is a pretty scary idea. But when you let things be as they are, you will be a much happier, more balanced, compassionate person.
I believe we are our own inner hand - the godly power resides within each of us to create the lives we desire - no matter what the challenges!
Dost thou not understand that there are two distinct forces in us, that of the soul and that of the body, that is, a movement and a regulator?
How we need another soul to cling to.
It is only when our life proceeds within bounds and in an accepted, disciplined way, that the mind can be free.
Our lives are in God's hands. We have no control. We can't control Him by using the Bible or cross as a good luck charm without a thorough reformation of heart and life.
There are things we can control and the things we can't control. I can't control how people react to the work I do.
There is nothing the body suffers the soul may not profit by.
The mind has exactly the same power as the hands; not merely to grasp the world, but to change it.
It is only to the individual that a soul is given.
