"Be pure in words and deeds and keep impure thoughts away. I am in every one of you and so I become aware of the slightest wave of thoughts. When the clothes become dirty, you have to give them for wash. When your mind is soiled, you have to be born again for the cleansing operations. The dhobi beats the clothes on the hard stone and draws over it the hot iron to straighten the folds. So, you too, will have to pass through a terrain of travail in order to become fit to approach God. See me as resident in everyone. Give them all the help you can, all the serve they need. Do not withhold the sweet word, the supporting hand, the assuring smile, the comforting company, the consoling conversation."
