Passage 23

In English

Spiritual practices purify the heart

Whatever teachings you hear and read, you should imbibe them in your heart. Once, a called his disciples and said to them, “My dear ones! I am giving all of you a sweet. See to it that it is not spoilt by ants, flies, mosquitoes, cats, or rats.” Most of the students tried to preserve it in many ways. But only one student ate it, digested it, and derived strength from it.
