| Summary |
"Sisäiset voimat" by Charles Baudouin is a psychological exploration written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the concept of inner strength, discussing the interplay between mind and body, and the mechanisms of personal development and self-control. Baudouin presents theories that intertwine ideas from various philosophies and psychological discoveries, aiming to empower individuals by understanding their internal capacities. At the start of the work, Baudouin introduces the relationship between thought and action, emphasizing the historical conflict between determinism and free will. He critiques the deterministic outlook prevalent in modern science, arguing that it diminishes humanity's perception of personal power and agency. Through examining the evolution of thought around inner strength from ancient beliefs to contemporary psychology, Baudouin aims to illustrate how personal belief in one's mental capabilities influences their reality. He sets the stage for a deeper investigation of how an understanding of psychological and physiological aspects can enhance one's personal efficacy and overall well-being.
