Some
Difficulties of the Inner Life
Choong Chi Pin
gives a talk based on a pamphlet of the same title first printed by TPH,
Adyar in March 1913. Synopsis follows:
“Everyone who sets
himself in earnest to the living of the Inner Life encounters certain
obstacles at the very beginning of the pathway thereto..... One of these
difficulties was put to me some time ago by a friend and
fellow-wayfarer.... [He] with much truth and insight [said] that for most
of us the difficulty lay more with the Inner Man than with his instruments;
that for most of us the bodies we had were quite sufficiently good, or, at
the worst, needed a little tuning, but that there was a desperate need for
the improvement of the man himself.”
