The Power of Truth by William George Jordan Pdf

The Power of Truth: Individual Problems and Possibilities by William George Jordan is a self-help book for everyone. As the title suggests, Jordan takes on the rather difficult task of explaining abstract concepts like truth, the human mind, ingratitude as well as tolerance and courage among other things. Written for the general reader, this book is an eye opener as the author deconstructs certain facts of life which are taken for granted by most people. Jordan opens with wisdom on truth and the power it holds over one's conscience. He defines truth as an intrinsic virtue which becomes extrinsic as it's radiated by individuals in their daily lives. He covers issues of companionship, religion, work and health giving prime importance to the search for truth and being honest with the self. He then moves on to discuss the role of ingratitude and people living in 'air castles'. In essence, Jordan argues that life is not a competition with others but a rivalry with our own selves. In parts mesmerizing and in others entirely motivational, The Power of Truth: Individual Problems and Possibilities has a hypnotizing effect on the reader. Jordan has mastered the art of using evocative phrases and just the right mix of assertion and self-conviction for penning some profound thoughts on optimism, value of life and importance of truth. The chapter on Companionship of Tolerance is perhaps worth mentioning as it stands out from the rest of the contents. Jordan offsets the negative qualities of people against their positive qualities to appreciate their true worth. While most of the content of this book is going to ring a bell in most readers' minds, it is the manner in which Jordan presents his theories that make it worth re-reading. Meant for every individual who wishes to deconstruct the vary basis of life and truth, The Power of Truth: Individual Problems and Possibilities is a must have for all.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1916 edition. Excerpt: ... filled promises; in detecting with the justice of a court of equity a technicality of speech that is virtually a lie. He will justify his own lapses from truth by appeal to some white lie told to a visitor, and unknown to be overheard by the little one, whose mental powers we ever underestimate in theory though we may overpraise in words. Q Teach the child in a thousand ways, directly and indirectly, the power of truth, the beauty of truth, and the sweetness and rest of companionship with truth. Q And if it be the rock-foundation of the child character, as a fact, not as a theory, the future of that child is as fully assured as it is possible for human prevision to guarantee. The power of Truth, in its highest, purest, and most exalted phases, stands squarely on four basic lines of relation, --the love of truth, the search for truth, faith in truth, and work for truth. 4 The love ofTruth is the cultivated hunger for it in itself and for itself, without any thought of what it may cost, what sacrifices it may entail, what theories or beliefs of a life-time may be laid desolate. In its supreme phase, this attitude of life is rare, but unless one can begin to put himself into harmony with this view, the individual will only creep in truth, when he might walk bravely. With the love of truth, the individual scorns to do a mean thing, no matter what be the gain, even if the whole world would approve. He would not sacrifice the sanction of his own high standard for any gain, he would not willingly deflect the needle of his thought and act from the true North, as he knows it, by the slightest possible variation. He himself would know of the deflection--that would be enough. What matters it what the world thinks if he have his own disapproval?..

The Power of Truth (Illustrated) by William George Jordan Pdf

"TRUTH is the rock foundation of every great character. It is loyalty to the right as we see it; it is courageous living of our lives in harmony with our ideals; it is always--power.Truth ever defies full definition. Like electricity it can only be explained by noting its manifestation. It is the compass of the soul, the guardian of conscience, the final touchstone of right. Truth is the revelation of the ideal; but it is also an inspiration to realize that ideal, a constant impulse to live it...."
