55. Abundance
The Lines
Bottom. [9] To join with another who seeks to achieve the
same goals through action and clear understanding can only serve to bring about
success. With such combined forces, success is assured. No matter how much time
they spend working together, they will both find the association stimulating and
highly productive.
2. [6] Inferior people are active, and their powerful
influence confuses the situation, so that a leader is unable to identify the
persons on whom he might depend to accomplish a great work. Under such
circumstances, a superior man is envied and disparaged by inferior people, and
anything he does is met with distrust and opposition. He is unable to
energetically pursue anything that might be productive. All such a man can do
is hold to the clarity of his inner vision and stand by what is true.
Eventually, the truth of the situation will be comprehended by the leader, and
he will realize that the superior man is the only one capable of doing the job.
3. [9] A man's effectiveness can be completely pushed to the
side by the prevalence of inferior men, who rise and make their presence known
before the leader. The situation is so dominated by inferior people, nothing
the man does will turn out successful, despite his best efforts. Although his
influence is completely crowded out, he cannot be blamed for this outcome. He
is prevented by the circumstances from being effective.
4. [9] The influence of dark forces begins to fade. Persons
of clear knowledge and action are able to come together, and a superior man
meets a leader who is like-minded with himself. The man's enthusiasm is matched
by the leader's wisdom, and the combination means that a favorable outcome is
then possible.
5. [6] When a leader is modest and has an open mind to the
counsel of wise and able assistants, a large number of good ideas can be made
available for consideration by everyone. Many excellent possibilities can be
presented and acted upon utilizing the combined intelligence of everyone
involved. This results in some great projects that lead to outstanding success,
with recognition and prosperity for all.
Top. [6] If a man becomes obsessed with his success, if he
is overcome with pride and arrogance because of his own achievements and so
dominates everyone that he closes his mind to their counsel, then he loses
touch with those he needs most, he loses sight of the whole point of his
endeavors, and all his efforts come to naught. Abundance
becomes an empty shell because the man got carried away with it all. He ends up
alone and with nothing
