2. It’s a method applicable by anyone.
It denounces FALSE MOTIVATIONS & reveals fundamental
PSYCHIC QUALITIES in each of us.
Paul Diel is the inventor; this presentation is a summary,
with no other aim than to share this method with a maximum
of people.
This method leads you to better
HARMONY with yourself.
HELPING each of us to find the MEANING OF OUR LIVES
through consciousness of his VITAL IMPULSES;
this is equivalent to show how far a human being can
MOTIVATE himself FALSELY.

3. PREVIOUSLY in the MEANING OF LIFE
Everyone is looking for a meaning in his life; it means:
Find an impulse to move in one direction.
This essential impetus directs our thoughts, volitions and
feelings toward a dynamic self balance.
This dynamic balance that oscillates between material
comfort and spiritual fulfillment is refined with time.
Human may find out a kind of unity by assuming and
introspecting himself daily and methodically.
This is an individual & voluntary approach,
No dogma no coach, no guru*.
Human seem to be the only animal on earth to think his
life. He lost instinct what he has (in principle) gain in
consciousness.

4. The Life of the Spirit is not only the work
of the intelect.
Some believe that this square is magic.

Wherever it is, all amounts give the same result.
This is a reflection of the Intelect.
In life, when all options lead to the same result, you
have to accept the unchangeable.
This force of acceptance is not resignation, it is a
more complete awareness.
This means knowing how to distinguish the
unchangeable to what you can modify in your life.
It doesn’t mean to miss opportunities.

9. QUESTIONS TO YOUR MIND
Wake the value counter function of your brain
Give a score from 0 to 5 with the following statements:
0 = I do not agree at all that assertion,
5 = I fully agree with this statement.
Gradations can temper your opinion.
Allow your mind to react to following sentences ...
And start your self introspection.
10. A1
Human being is free to do what he pleases, but if he wants
to be satisfied with himself and life, he must be self-aligned
psychically.
"A healthy mind in a healthy body. »
A2
"Self-knowledge is accessible only by staff struggle against
the vain blindness of the mind.
Know ourselves is to confess the motives of our blindness. »
(P Diel)

0 = I do not agree at all that assertion,
5 = I fully agree with this statement
11. A4
“Mind conceptualizes objectives in order to achieve efficiency, but
may, by false motivations,
straying into multiple desires. » (P Diel)

0 = I do not agree at all that assertion,
5 = I fully agree with this statement
A5
Each life is the perception of two worlds:
the Inner World (Self) and the World Outside (the Other)
12. A7
The exact sciences gradually explained the world,
thereby demystifying what Beliefs and Religions had
instituted.
A6
In “developed countries”, we live in clever society, modern,
rich and … materialistic.
A8
This has resulted in a loss of spirituality,
The man of modern society no longer values guides.
He is lost in materialism, seeking recognition, lusts for
power and selfishness.
One consequence is the difficulty to listen,
understand and build together.

13. A9
Daily, consciously or not, each of us attempts to
understand the outside world; he became fascinated by
its diversity and its material temptations.
We forget to learn to explore our inner world,
one day either our body or mind remind us.
A10
Without objective introspective method for this self-
observation, each seeking to know each other better
through the reactions and the looks of others, distorted
views and actions often falsely motivated.
Our false motives restrict personal development,
professional and mutual understandings.

14. Results?
Any result would be dogmatic, everyone can find the result
they want.
The main thing is to have let his mind valuing these claims, it
is an act of simple reflection, but that does not just appeal to
the conscious, it makes the mind work freely.
It awakens the value counter function of our mind
and helps us to find our way.
We will see in "disorder in the mind" as it is easy to blind our
mind with false motivations built in any rational and analog
fashion consciousness.
C. Lecocq
15. Chinese proverbs (in French, just to let you work ;-)
Celui qui aime apprendre est bien proche de savoir.
De tous les instruments de mort, l'ambition est le plus meurtrier.
Celui qui marche trop vite risque de prendre le pas sur son aîné.
Le grand jour est un abri plus sûr que l'ombre de la nuit.
Quand un homme est a la moitie de sa vie, les dix mille choses s'arrêtent.
