Do not make the mistake of thinking that because my conclusion is the same as another person's that my reasoning is the same
Principles
Deep Knowledge is to be aware of disturbance before disturbance, to be aware of danger before danger, to be aware of destruction before destruction, to be aware of calamity before calamity.
Strong Action is training the body without being burdened by the body, exercising the mind without being used by the mind, working in the world without being affected by the world, carrying out tasks without being obstructed by tasks.
By Deep Knowledge of Principle, one can change disturbance into order, change danger into safety, change destruction into survival, change calamity into fortune.
By Strong Action on the Way, one can bring the body into the realm of longevity, bring the mind into the sphere of mystery, bring the world to great peace and bring tasks to great fulfillment.
