Passage 18

In English

Do not do anything artificially. Whatever you do, do it ‘heartfully’ (wholeheartedly). Art is external, heart is internal. Follow the dictates of your heart. People greet each other ‘good morning’, ‘good evening’, etc., but most of them do it in a mechanical and artificial manner. Truly speaking, there is no morning or evening. We call it morning when the sun rises in the east, and evening when the sun sets in the west. But actually speaking, there is no sunrise or sunset. It is because of the rotation of the earth that we see the sun during the day and the moon during the night.
