Direct all your efforts to cultivating the tender plant of virtue that grows in the most intimate part of your being. To facilitate its development, purify your will and do not allow the illusions of the senses to blind you, and, at each step that you take in the path of eternal life, you shall find a purer air, a new life, a clearer light and, in proportion to your ascent your mental horizon shall be expanded.

If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. (Mark 8:34)
