because
Resistance may be uncomfortable.
Resistance is required for anything to develop.

The Four
Dual Basic Urges are not “right/wrong” or “good/bad” or “do/don’t do”.
They are simply byproducts or side effects of living, not the whole purpose of
living.
Because all humans are subject to all the Four Dual Basic Urges, when they are
made
the whole purpose of living (unconsciously, beginning during the uncomfortable
birth
process) they have to result in conflict—one wants all the “gain” side and
none of the
“escape” side, and this is not possible on planet Earth. THE WAY of
Intelligence
is not to self-improve by rejecting the Four Dual Basic Urges; THE WAY is to
observe self and one’s reactions to them, checking to see if
they are the purpose of living—of not.
They will come up and can be ignored if one chooses.

THE WAY OF THE
JUNGLE
Destroy anything that is in front of me and about to interfere.
THE WAY OF
JUSTICE, THE WAY OF THE LAW
“An eye for an eye”—not “Your life for an eye”
THE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING
That whatever any person including myself has done, is doing, will do, is felt
at
the time of doing to be right or proper or justified with the light he has at
that moment.
THE WAY OF
INTELLIGENCE
Aware of one’s Purpose of Living, making a new one that is advantageous,
the will to do it—Knowing what I am, where I am,
what’s gong on, and what I can do.
In charge of my inner state of being.
