ego fixation : vengeance ( objectification )
holy idea : truth
basic fear : being harmed of controlled by others
motivations : wanting to be self - reliant , desiring to prove their strength and resist weakness , wanting to be important , needing to dominate and to “ stay in control " of life
virtue to learn : innocence
the holy idea of ' truth ' is the understanding that all is one : the entire universe , with all of its levels and dimensions , is an expression of the one no matter how fragmented the subjective mind perceives it .
when this fundamental understanding is obscured or lost , it can result in a personality type that sees reality in a very dualistic way ( justice / injustice , strong / weak , good / bad ) && SEES ITSELF as essentially ' bad ' or ' guilty . ’ to numb the pain of this core wound , the challenger overcompensates by controlling others or by dominating situations so that they don't feel VULNERABLE .
' active challengers ' tend towards intensity && rigidity , being disciplinarians given to conflict && aggression , && protectiveness towards the weak . ' passive challengers , ' on the other hand , incline toward HEDONISM && indulge in excess . the challenger’s behavior comes as a result of growing up in an environment where weakness ( showing vulnerability ) is frowned upon . thus , the challenger learns that success lies in controlling others , not in being controlled by them .
on the other hand , the challenger tends to be fair , confident , && self - reliant .
