How To Be A Man Or Women Of Integrity?
There are times in the life of every man who takes his stand
on high moral principles when his faith in, and knowledge
of, those principles is tested to the uttermost, and the way
in which he comes out of the fiery trial decides as to
whether he has sufficient strength to live as a man of Truth,
and join the company of the free, or shall still remain a
slave and a hireling to the cruel taskmaster, Self. Such times of trial generally assume the form of a temptation
to do a wrong thing and continue in comfort and prosperity,
or to stand by what is right and accept poverty and failure;
and so powerful is the trial that, to the tempted one, it
plainly appears on the face of things as though, if he chooses
the wrong, his material success will be assured for the
remainder of his life, but if he does what is right, he will
be ruined for ever. Frequently the man at once quails and
gives way before this appalling prospect which the Path of
Righteousness seems to hold out for him, but should he prove
sufficiently strong to withstand this onslaught of temptation,
then the inward seducer the spirit of self, assumes the grab
of an Angel of Light, and whispers, "Think of your wife and
children; think of those who are dependent upon you; will
you bring them down to disgrace and starvation?" Strong indeed and pure must be the man who can come triumphant
out of such a trial, but he who does so, enters at once a
higher realm of life, where his spiritual eyes are opened to
see beautiful things; and then poverty and ruin which seemed
inevitable do not come, but a more abiding success comes, and
a peaceful heart and a quiet conscience. But he who fails does
not obtain the promised prosperity, and his heart is restless
and his conscience troubled. The right-doer cannot ultimately fail, the wrong-doer cannot
ultimately succeed, for "Such is the Law which moves to
Righteousness Which none at last can turn aside or stay,"
and it is because justice is at the heart of things- because
the Great Law is good- that the man of integrity is superior
to fear, and failure, and poverty, and shame, and disgrace.As
the poet further says of this Law: "The heart of its Love, the end of it Is peace and cosummation
sweet-obey." The man who fearing the loss of present pleasures or material
comforts, denies the Truth within him, can be injured, and
robbed, and degraded, and trampled upon, because he has first
injured, robbed and degraded, and trampled upon his own nobler
self; but the man of steadfast virtue, of unblemished integrity,
cannot be subject to such conditions, because he has denied the
craven self within him and has taken refuge in Truth. It is not
the scourge and the chains which make a man a slave, but the
fact that he is a slave. Slander, Accusation, and malice cannot affect the righteous man,
nor call from him any bitter response, nor does he need to go
about to defend himself and prove his innocence. His innocence
and integrity alone are a sufficient answer to all that hatred
may attempt against him. Nor can he ever be subdued by the
forces of darkness, having subdued all those forces within
himself; but he turns all evil things to good account - out of
darkness he brings light, out of hatred love, out of dishonour
honour; and slanders, envies, and misrepresentations only serve
to make more bright the jewel of Truth within him, and to
glorify his high and holy destiny. Let the man of integrity rejoice and be glad when he is severely
tried; let him be thankful that he has been given an opportunity
of proving his loyalty to the noble principles which he has
espoused; and let him think: "Now is the hour of holy
opportunity! Now is the day of triumph for Truth! Though I lose
the whole world I will note desert the right!" So thinking, he
will return good for evil, and will think compassionately of the
wrong-doer. The slanderer, the backbiter, and the wrong-doer may seem to
succeed for a time, but the Law of Justice prevails; the man of
integrity may seem to fail for a time, but he is invincible, and
in none of the worlds, visible or invisible, can there be forged
a weapon that shall prevail against him. **Attn Ezine Editors / Site Owners**
