Passage 5

In English

“” (Firm determination)

This is the nature of a person, when he has a firm, steady and unwavering mind. Man, by nature, is endowed with courage and steadfastness. He puts these qualities to use in so many ways. Some people use their courage and adventurism in mountaineering. They are extremely courageous. Some others employ these qualities in swimming and crossing the seemingly endless ocean. Yet others show their courage in travelling through dense forests infested with wild animals. Some people mercilessly torture others and extort money from them, displaying their courage and adventurism. Yet, there are some others who bid adieu to Divinity, forget humanity and indulge in cruel acts, like demons. They employ their courage in such acts. Thus, courage and steadfastness can be employed either in good or in evil deeds.
