Excerpt from The Hymn of the Conquered
First of all, what is the source of the legislative role of my conscience which bids me to do good and avoid evil, but which does not make things right or wrong anymore than the eye makes color red or white? It merely lays down the law, thus betraying that it is an intermediary between someone else and me. This law is certainly not of my own making, nor does it come from society.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the depths of Christian morality, exploring timeless themes such as the role of God in shaping our moral compass, the necessity of self-denial, and the transformative power of living a life dedicated to God. Drawing inspiration from the biblical account of Jesus' birth in a humble stable, the author emphasizes that true divinity often resides where we least expect it. Through introspective examinations of conscience, the author guides readers on a journey of self-discovery, revealing the internal struggle between good and evil that resides within each of us. The book challenges the prevailing indifference of the world towards spiritual matters, arguing that neglecting our spiritual growth leads to the atrophy of our God-given faculties. Instead, the author advocates for a life of "dying to live," embracing self-denial and actively resisting the forces that pull us away from our higher purpose. This path, though challenging, offers the promise of true fulfillment and an awakening to the divine life that resides within us all. Ultimately, the book's insights remind us that the greatest conquest is not over the external world, but over ourselves, and that true progress lies in aligning our hearts and minds with the will of God.
