Do not worry about others and their faults
There is in everyone a spark of truth; no one can live without that spark. There is in everyone a flame of love; life becomes a dark void without it. That spark, that flame, is God, for He is the source of all Truth and all Love. One seeks truth; one seeks to know the reality because one’s very nature is derived from God, who is Truth. One seeks Love, to give it and share it, for one’s nature is of God and God is Love. Like the paddy seed, which contains rice, the husk is the delusion () that covers the seed within; the rice is the individual soul, and the essence of the rice, the sustaining element, the food, that is the Supreme . So, develop inner vision; do not worry about others and their faults. Do a little examination of the Self. Study the and spiritual texts - they might help you a little. Remember, only a little help. They are but maps and sign posts. You must put them into practice; act and experience. Meditate on the truth, and you will find that you are but a sparkling bubble upon the waters - born on water, living for a brief moment on water, and dying upon its breast, merging in it. You owe your birth to God: you subsist on God and you merge in God. Every living thing has to reach that consummation; why, every non-living thing too. So do it now; take the first step. Purify the heart, sharpen the intellect, or at least begin the recital of the name of the Lord. That will give you all the rest in due time. When one plants a mango seed, one is not sure of living to eat the fruit, but that is beside the point. To plant, to nourish, to guard, to grow, that is the duty; the rest is His look out. That is the real renunciation of the fruits of action.
