Integrity of the Act (1959-05-08)

Description

In this recording, Thurman first cautions us to think twice before we move our neighbor's landmarks. This means to be aware that we are never able to fully understand another person's perspective and path through life. "To know a man is to know concerning his landmarks, for these are his points of referral that stand out beyond and above all the traffic of his life, advising and tutoring him in his journey through life and beyond."

Thurman then explores the difficult yet important task of taking responsibility for our actions and our reactions to the impersonal forces that affect us each day. "The quality of my response begins to create within me a climate out of which all of my deeds and all of my thinking and all of my living emerge."
