There is a third strategy. It is powered by the intense light of inner Torah that awakens the essence of the soul, a place so deep that it knows no change, it does not move and cannot be broken.

When that essence-core awakens from its slumber, the essence of all things also breaks out from its absolute darkness into the light. Even the darkness itself emerges as light.

Then there is no longer war, but peace. No more opponents, only allies.

To the essence of your soul, after all, is tied the essence of all that is. Even of darkness.
