| You derive benefit from the world and the community, and so some activity on your part is their due. This world, really speaking, is a huge workshop; every human being is a limb in this organisation. The limb is allotted a task in accordance with its structure, and it must find its fulfillment in doing that work; and it has to be done as an offering to God. There is no single thing in the universe that does not engage itself in this great task. Plant and insect, stone and stump, wind and rain, heat and cold, if each of these does not work as per plan, the world cannot subsist. The sun and the moon carry on their routine tasks; wind and fire have to perform their duties without demur. It is only when each performs their task without fail, and with care, that the wheel will move quickly and smoothly. - Divine Discourse, Jan 1, 1971. |
