[6] When inferior men invade those people who are<br \/>\nthe foundation upon whom the superior man depends, they begin undermining his<br \/>\nsupport and turning people against him. Those who remain true to him are<br \/>\nattacked and their reputations besmirched. No one remains who is loyal to the<br \/>\nman. He is nominally in charge, but there is nothing that he can do. <a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/10\/good-morning-h-23.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Disaster appears imminent<\/a>, and there is no rescue in sight. All that the man can do is<br \/>\nwait and hope that things will work themselves out on their own. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>2. [6] Once entrenched, inferior people begin taking control<br \/>\nand seek to discredit the superior man himself. He sees this, and is troubled<br \/>\nby it, but there is no one that he can turn to. His subordinates have deserted<br \/>\nhim, and no one above him even cares. He faces the crisis quite alone, and his<br \/>\nenemies are waiting for him to make a wrong move. This is a very delicate<br \/>\nsituation. Since the superior man is entirely vulnerable and standing alone,<br \/>\nhis best course is to avoid taking action and remaining out of the line of<br \/>\nfire. If he were to vigorously defend himself and try to forge ahead, he would<br \/>\nonly meet with disaster. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>3. [6] A man may find himself compelled to associate with<br \/>\nevil people because of commitments he has made to others. It would be a bad<br \/>\nsituation, except if he were forced to deal with them alone. Fortunately, he<br \/>\nhas ties to a superior man who acts as a guide and inspiration, so that the<br \/>\nevil environment leaves him unscathed. This means he is not part of the corrupt<br \/>\npeople around him, but that is what keeps him from himself going down a wrong<br \/>\npath. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>4. [6] When misfortune arrives, it cannot be avoided and<br \/>\nmust be endured. But even in defeat, the superior man adheres to his<br \/>\nprinciples. He is well aware that all things are subject to the law of change.<br \/>\nHe remains true to himself, endures the adversity, and looks forward to<br \/>\nemerging in time from disaster, just as he, in time, happened upon it. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>5. [6] At last, the inferior elements that had been so<br \/>\nthreatening finally relent and submit themselves to the leadership of superior<br \/>\nmen. The inferior no longer seek to undermine the efforts of superior men, but<br \/>\nback down, realizing that their best interests are promoted by the best people,<br \/>\nnot by evil designs. Moreover, even inferior men caution other inferior men to<br \/>\nadopt the course laid out for them by the superior man. When this happens,<br \/>\neveryone &#8212; high and low &#8212; benefits, and all goes well. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>Top. [9] Finally, after the <a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/04\/splitting-apart-is-word-for-today_28.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">inferior elements<\/a> have done<br \/>\ntheir mischief, the time of misfortune ends, and the future holds greater<br \/>\npromise. That which was intended from the beginning at last has a chance to<br \/>\nmanifest itself. With the inferior elements out of the way, the superior man is<br \/>\nagain able to move ahead and accomplish great things. His influence upon his<br \/>\nsubordinates is again established, and they readily follow his leadership with<br \/>\nloyalty and enthusiasm. The evil man, however, is confronted with his evil, and<br \/>\nit consumes him, because evil has nothing constructive to offer and attracts no<br \/>\npositive rewards. In the end, the advances it attains through deceit and the<br \/>\nhonors it wins through dissimulation are all shown to be an empty shell, and<br \/>\nthe evildoer is humiliated. The inferior man, incapable of creatively pursuing<br \/>\nwhat is right, true and just, contributes best to his own advancement by<br \/>\nallying himself with the superior man, not opposing him. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>Please Comment, Like and Share<o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p><b style=\"text-align: center;\">Credit |&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9TcCTfh-oPU\" style=\"text-align: left;\">23.
