Episode Contents:
HYPOTHESIS 41: That for those who are not prepared, it is perilous to live alone.
HYPOTHESIS 42: That we should not gainsay anyone in a contentious manner even regarding those things that are considered good, but should be subject to our neighbor in everything.
HYPOTHESIS 43: That whatever happens, happens by the justice of God; for this reason, the believer must always follow Divine Providence and must seek, not his own will, but the Will of God; for he who does or accepts all things in this manner has spiritual rest.
HYPOTHESIS 44: That humility is completely impregnable to demons, how humility is gendered, and what its power is; that humility, more than all the other virtues, is able, by itself, to save a man.
HYPOTHESIS 45: A distinctive mark of the humble man is that he blames and disparages himself and thinks that his good deeds, howsoever many and whatsoever they may be, amount to nothing; what the characteristic traits of humility are, and what are its fruits.
HYPOTHESIS 46: Concerning what profit there is in reproaching ourselves.
HYPOTHESIS 47: That we should not seek honor or desire privileges; for whatever men reckoned to be honorable is an abomination to God.
HYPOTHESIS 48: That to appear to be humble, when this is done inopportunely or excessively, is not beneficial, but harmful; how we ought to act towards those who praise us, and that praise does no harm at all to one who is attentive.
HYPOTHESIS 49: Concerning how one should use clothing, what kind, and up to what point, in order to cover the body, and how the Fathers love frugality, and their very dress; the faithful should prefer frugality and every circumstance.
HYPOTHESIS 50: That we should not do anything to gratify ourselves or do anything out of a passionate craving.
