Plus what actions lead to bondage and what actions lead to salvation. Basically to me, the lord is telling him that if he did what he was supposed to do then his rewards would come but if not he would be punished and which is learned as Karma. Arjuna accuses Krishna of confusing him, since he recommends the act of fighting over the superior duty of contemplation, leading to the attainment of true knowledge. He asks him to choose the best method for him. The lord wants him to choose his own path but reminds him that acting for the pleasure of the Supreme, without selfish motives, one can be liberated from the law of karma and attains transcendental knowledge of the self and the Supreme.

Emerson states that a man to become an individual must question every orthodox belief that he faces and must decide what he believes to be true, not what society thinks to be true. Emerson writes in this persuasive rhetoric to try and convince the reader of the potential dangers of conformity as society will harm the individuals. "Society everywhere is a conspiracy against the manhood of every one of its members." Emerson states that man must be self-reliant and trust themselves in order to be an individual. "Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string."

Hence, one must understand in which situations he should keep trying. For many people, failure is nothing but the first step towards the success. This should be our approach in life.
To achieve this, Dominic and accomplices have to build a dreamscape in which Robert Fischer must project his own ideas and reflections into positive emotional logic. The goal is to enable Fischer to produce his own belief in the idea that "My father accepts that I want to create for myself, not follow in his footsteps.” Inception is complete upon the moment Fischer, based on his projected subconscious, dreams of a conversation in which his father confirms this idea. In reality it is made clear that Robert’s father never loved him, but Robert had to reconcile his painful relationship with his father at the point of trying to discover a “second will” in his dream. Fischer’s representation of the “second will” reflecting the love his father always had for him was imposed to reduce the cognitive dissonance that existed and reversed a negative emotional experience to a positive one. Cognitive dissonance arises at the point of discrepancy among two concepts in a person that motivates them to reduce the discomfort through restoring consistency.
The creases in her forehead gradually deepen. Memories. Sweet memories linger in her mind. Slowly becoming enclosed in bitter obscurity. The fear of being buried in the shadows of forever aloneness.
Over the years, I have accomplished what I have set for myself. Getting my Master’s degree is not one of them. It has been very elusive not because I could not handle it, but because of the personal circumstances that life brings. Achieving it has been an obsession. I am very driven and when I set my mind into something, it will be done.

Sylvia is saying that just simply closing her eyes or hiding does not last forever because when she opens her eyes everything is still the same. "(I think I made you up inside my head)"?, with this, Sylvia is referring to the happiness and normality of her own life. She feels that this has never been a real part of her life and therefore she has only made it up in her head.
After finding his sister he then began the journey of finding his lost son that he had no communication with in a very extended period of time. As they went from place to place they would tally up a new clue but less promising safety of Absolom. I respect the perseverance of Father Kumalo but the amount of selflessness shown by Msimangu . It is truly amazing that someone could stop his life and devote it to something he has no idea about in order to help a complete stranger out. Understanding this logic is very difficult, but also made me believe even stronger in my position.
