The Strenuous Life Spiritual and The Submissive Life

By Albert Van Der Naillen

Book Overview

""The Strenuous Life Spiritual and The Submissive Life"" is a book written by A. Van der Naillen. The book explores two contrasting approaches to life - the strenuous and the submissive. The author argues that the strenuous life, characterized by hard work, determination, and the pursuit of challenges, is the path to spiritual growth and fulfillment. On the other hand, the submissive life, marked by passivity, resignation, and the acceptance of fate, leads to spiritual stagnation and a lack of purpose.The book draws on a range of philosophical and religious traditions, including Christianity, Buddhism, and Stoicism, to support its arguments. It also includes practical advice and exercises to help readers cultivate the habits and attitudes of the strenuous life.Overall, ""The Strenuous Life Spiritual and The Submissive Life"" is a thought-provoking and inspiring exploration of how we can live a more fulfilling and purposeful life. It challenges readers to embrace the challenges and opportunities that come their way and to strive for excellence in all areas of their lives.1912.
