[9] The penalty imposed for a first and minor<br \/>\noffense should be mild. The purpose of the penalty is not to destroy the<br \/>\nwrongdoer, or to make a healthy relationship to society impossible, but to<br \/>\nserve as a warning and to provide incentive for the offender to correct his<br \/>\nbehavior. A young man, prone to following the path of wrongdoing, can be<br \/>\ndiverted from that path, brought to his senses, and given incentive not to<br \/>\nsuffer even worse <a href=\"https:\/\/mediaeclatdotcom.blogspot.com\/2019\/04\/goodies-i-ching-21-biting-through-lines.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">penalties<\/a>, by being given a mild but real punishment for his<br \/>\nfirst offense. If, on the other hand, he is let off too easily, he will be<br \/>\nencouraged to commit additional offenses by the light way he was treated; and<br \/>\nif he is dealt with too severely, he will be embittered by the unjust severity<br \/>\nand converted into an enemy of the society looking for revenge. Only a skilled<br \/>\njudge can determine the exact punishment that is proper for a given offender. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>2. [6] When the difference between right and wrong is clear,<br \/>\nand a person persists in doing wrong, it is easy to be excessive in meting out<br \/>\npunishment. Nevertheless, no great harm is done, since some degree of<br \/>\npunishment is surely merited, and the hardened sensibilities of the wrongdoer<br \/>\nsuggests severe treatment is appropriate. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>3. [6] If a man lacks the official authority to correct a<br \/>\nwrongdoer, and if the wrongdoer has no respect for him for that reason, the man<br \/>\nmay feel inadequate for the task and unable to be effective in changing the<br \/>\nwrongdoer&#8217;s behavior. Yet, wrong has been done, and some kind of correction<br \/>\nmust be imposed, whether it has a corrective effect or not. This might cause<br \/>\ndifficulty and embarrassment, and the wrongdoer may feel only contempt for the<br \/>\nman, but he is justified in proceeding regardless of the awkwardness of the<br \/>\nsituation. No wrongdoer should be allowed to escape punishment just because he has<br \/>\nno respect for the punishing authority. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>4. [9] There are times when wrongdoers are powerful men<br \/>\nthemselves, and in powerful positions. Prosecuting and punishing them presents<br \/>\ngrave problems, and this places the man up against a formidable opposition. But<br \/>\nin spite of the difficulty, a man can succeed against powerful wrongdoers.<br \/>\nTheir great weakness is that they are in the wrong and deserve to be brought to<br \/>\ntask for their acts. Nevertheless, this requires that the man be firm in his<br \/>\ndealings and inflexible in his pursuit of justice. If he recognizes the<br \/>\ndifficulties, and faces up to each one of them squarely, he will succeed in the<br \/>\nend. Even powerful wrongdoers must be brought to task for their offenses. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>5. [6] A situation involving wrongdoing may be clear, but it<br \/>\nmay still involve great difficulty. It would be easy, because of the<br \/>\ncomplexities, to overlook the extent of the problem and to place limitations on<br \/>\nthose matters that are being investigated. But that would be a mistake. A<br \/>\nperson must be thorough, but remain absolutely thorough and fair. He must not<br \/>\npretend to ignore certain aspects of a problem in order to make the task<br \/>\neasier, neither should he let a wrongdoer escape responsibility just because<br \/>\nthe matter is too complicated. The man&#8217;s responsibility is to be honest, fair,<br \/>\nstraightforward, and thorough, and that is the only way that he can competently<br \/>\nbring the matter to a successful conclusion. <o:p><\/o:p><\/p>\n<p>Top. [9] If a man is beyond redemption, if he refuses to<br \/>\nmodify his behavior, and if no amount of punishments have an effect upon him,<br \/>\nthen he is truly in an unfortunate state. His wrongdoing has made him an enemy<br \/>\nof society, and his obstinacy makes it certain that he will never be<br \/>\nreconciled. Such a man will never find a fulfilling destiny. His situation will<br \/>\nonly grow more desperate with time. <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=_CwPeyNuDIQ\" style=\"text-align: left;\">21.
