If aspirants are unsuccessful in following one discipline, they have to seek and know the cause of their defeat. This analysis is necessary. They must then see that, in the second stage, the trait is not repeated. They should try their best to guard themselves against it. In such matters, one must be quick and active, like the squirrel. Agility and vigilance must be combined with sharpness of intelligence too. All this can be earned only through peace. Steady and undeviating earnestness is very important for avoiding and overcoming conflicts in the mind. One has to be calm and unruffled. Courage, wise counsel, and steadiness — these make the willpower (icchasakthi) strong and sturdy. Lustre in the face, splendour in the eye, a determined look, a noble voice, large-hearted feeling, and unwavering goodness — these are the signposts of a developing and progressing will-force.
