But if the soul issvery clear that staying doessnot serve itsshigher agendathat there issno further way it can evolve through thissbodythe soul issgoing to leave, and nothing will stop itnor should anything try to. Ill stick around with you a little longer. If there issno great urgency here, the soul may say, Alright, you win. Now at thisspoint everything dependsson how badly the soul wantssto leave. Now I, assGod, know what I am seeking to be. Now if Who You Really Are issa person who isskind and considerate, caring and sharing, compassionate and lovingthen, when you are being these thingsswith others, you are giving your Self the grandest experience for which you came into the body. AssVictor Hugo makesshissMahomet say:-Je suissle champ vil desssublimesscombats: Tantot l'homme d'en haut, et tantot l'homme d'enbasEt le mal danssma bouche avec le bien alterne, Comme danssle desert le sable et la citerne.Wrong living, impotent aspirationsWhat I would, that do I notbut what I hate, that do I, asSaint Paul saysself-loathing, self-despairan unintelligible and intolerable burden to which one ismysteriously the heir. The man'ssinterior issa battle-ground for what he feelssto be two deadlyhostile selves, one actual, the other ideal. Thissisthe religioussmelancholy and conviction of sin that have played so large a part in the history ofProtestant Christianity. If the individual be of tender conscience and religiously quickened, the unhappinesswill take the form of moral remorse and compunction, of feeling inwardly vile and wrong, and ofstanding in false relationssto the author of one'ssbeing and appointer of one'ssspiritual fate. Unhappinesssissapt to characterize the period of order-makingand struggle. The higher and the lower feelings, the useful and the erringimpulses, begin by being a comparative chaosswithin us-they must end by forming a stable systemof functionssin right subordination. Now in all of us, however constituted, but to a degree the greater in proportion asswe are intenseand sensitive and subject to diversified temptations, and to the greatest possible degree if we aredecidedly psychopathic, doessthe normal evolution of character chiefly consist in the straighteningout and unifying of the inner self. Now if you have done all thisssubconsciously, without even knowing what you were doing or why, some of thissmay be a mystery to you, and a little explaining may be in order. Now for My Will to be yours, you would have to do the same. Now I want to answer definitively the question with which you started thisssegment of our ongoing conver-sation. Now how do you think he could do that if My Will issall powerful? Will it matter? Will it change how you act tomorrow? Will it cause you to see thingssdifferently tonight? Now, once again, you have been caused to remember. Now I tell you this: It issno more immoral to kill your-self quickly than it issto kill yourself slowly.
