Passage 36

In English

Sparks of fire are produced when two pieces of wood are rubbed hard together. Butter is formed when curd is churned in a sustained manner. Similarly, in spirituality, sustained enquiry leads one to Wisdom and Divinity. You realise the truth: – That thou art. Is it possible to get fire without rubbing and butter without churning? The fire is latent in the wood and is not visible.
