Human desire is the driver of human existence. The desire/need for basic goods such as water and food, warmth and protection, relationships and things, power and wealth. – That is why it says in the ancient Law of Moses from Mount Sinai (Deuteronomy 5,21) that you “should not desire your neighbor’s wife, or your neighbor’s house or land, or anything else that belongs to your neighbor.” – In order to control “desire”, man is from the beginning equipped with an “inner voice” or what we call “conscience” – The interaction of different voices of conscience in turn created different ethical models to deal with the difficult challenges on a higher level, while common sense and different forms of religious life created moral rules for human interaction and development. All of it – for hundreds of years, surrounded by national and international legislation that was supposed to promote and protect the community’s interests.
In this diversity of voices, ethics, morality and law, a leader must show the way towards common goals and success. Skilled people want to achieve a lot,
but far too many do not anchor their ambitions
in their own values and in their own self.
Then what happens which according to old wisdom is described as:
“Up like a lion, and down like an old blanket.”
Because: “A tree that wants to grow high
must grow deep”.
The egg as a symbol and as an illustration tells step by
step about how the external process at all times
must be anchored in a corresponding internal process.
