Hypocrisy
is rampant now in the spiritual field more than ever before. There is
iron and magnet. The magnet will draw the iron to itself; that is the
destiny of both. But, if the iron is covered with rust, the grace of the
magnet may not operate strong enough to draw the iron near. Greed for
sensual pleasure will certainly act as rust! It acts as dust, which
induces rust; the rust will ultimately ruin the iron itself and change
its innate nature. So, the iron must be tested constantly and dusted.
Then, when it contacts the magnet, it too earns the magnetic quality and
achieves its quest. That achievement is the best for both magnet and
iron. The dust of sensual greed can be prevented by keeping good
company, and putting into practice the axioms of good conduct that one
learns from it!
- Divine Discourse, Mar 11, 1968
