Faith is not enough - we have to set to work
Why deceive people by preaching that all they need to do to be saved is have faith? Faith is only a requirement, a starting point. Then they have to set to work so that the forces of the universe have a reason to get moving. Those who are content to say, ‘I believe, I believe’, without giving more concrete expression to what they believe, will always go hungry in some way or another. But if they sow just a few seeds – some thoughts, feelings and words inspired by disinterestedness, kindness and love – all the powers of heaven and earth, of rain and sun, will be at hand to make the seeds germinate and grow. One day, they will have a whole field from which to feed both themselves and a multitude of other creatures. What you have to believe in to be saved is your own activity. For even the most insignificant activity is bound to produce results. So, make sure that every one of your thoughts, feelings and actions becomes like a seed sown in spiritual soil. Then the forces they set in motion will benefit you and the whole world.
