[John Asherah]

By devotion alone, many advance in Loving Wisdom.
Like soft rain, they gently refresh and nourish all the growing world.

Water does invisibly rise, that it may fall equally and to the sea, return.

Those who offer love without thought of recompense, become worthy to receive love without limit.

One who loves birds does not build a cage, but plants a tree.

It is not the skin, but the mind that must reflect light.

The animal may be pained until it becomes obedient, but Loving Wisdom and all human virtue is grounded in joy, not fear.

Most worthy is the human heart, which even now desires the good it does not yet know.
