Another warning
Just as ambition is generated by a sense of inferiority, so the inability to do things gratuitously proceeds from a perennial sense of deficiency and of misery. A sense of misery and deficiency activates the mind's unquenchable thirst for control. Jesus warns that doing things to always receive a reward or something in return is the most reliable way to live forever in poverty and deficiency because lavishing energy in order to get control over things places man completely outside of the circle of a divine, heavenly reward. Loving to receive a reward is not loving, but desire to control. In the same way, respect, work, relations, giving of oneself, doing something to receive a reward of any kind is nothing more than a way of controlling and being in control. Controlling the energy lavished from one's own heart leads to the inevitable consequence of wanting to control the destiny of others. The desire to control the lives of others is supreme stupidity and will have no other reward than seeing everything, absolutely everything, slip out of one's heart and hands.
