"One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Do you recall these famous lines? These were the words uttered by Neil Armstrong as he made his first steps on the surface of the moon. The success of the amazing Apollo II mission inspired people all over the world and turned an inspiring new leaf in history. Millions of people were glued to their TV sets, watching with excitement as a once-longed-for dream became a reality, just a quarter of a million miles away. When the Apollo II landed on the moon, it epitomized man's astounding ability to conquer outer space.
But what about inner space?
If man is able to go beyond the clouds to other planets and possibly distant galaxies, can he also go into his own soul and discover more about himself? In our technology-oriented age, we conquer space - but we cannot conquer the self. Says one acclaimed speaker, "Now that man can fly like a bird and swim like a fish, I wish that he could learn to walk on earth like a man."
How well do you know your inner space? The conquest of inner space is beyond the power of science or technology. Our inner space is our soul, the very seat of our being. To conquer our inner space is to understand our soul, our very selves.
