The most direct method of spiritual success is desireless action,
action without any attention or attachment to the fruit therefrom,
action as duty, action as dedication, action as worship.

But action and the fruit thereof are not two separate entities,
the fruit is the action itself, in its final stage, the climax, the conclusion.

The flower is the fruit; the fruit is the flower; one is the beginning, the other is the legitimate end. The flower becomes the fruit. The action becomes the consequence.
