Give up the feelings "I" and "you".
Only then can you understand the glory
of that which is neither "I" nor "mine".
This does not mean you renounce everything.
Deal with the world as duty demands, in a spirit of detachment.
The acid test by which an activity can be confirmed
as holy and sacred is to examine whether it promotes
attachment or bondage.
The activity is unholy or sinful
if it arises from or promotes greed.
With the intent of fulfilling your legitimate duties,
pray to God to keep you alive for a hundred years.
You will not incur blame.
