Life is a constant giving and
receiving, a constant inhaling and exhaling of the Breath of Life. You could
not spend your entire time inhaling without exhaling any more than you could
spend your time giving without receiving. When life ceases to be a two-way
thing it dries up and dies away. Every soul has to learn to live a life, and
group living brings this out very clearly. No soul can live entirely for
themselves, they have to learn to live for others and with others. There has to
be a constant giving and receiving on all levels for perfect peace and harmony
to be maintained. As each one finds their rightful place and pulls their
weight, so everything gets done. It would no more do for a soul to sit in
meditation all day, not lifting a finger to help with the practical side of
group living, than to go on working without the balance of the deep inner life.
There must be balance in all things and at all times.
