The Tao of the pure and simple consists in preserving spirituality.

The Tao of the pure and simple consists in preserving spirituality. He who preserves his spirituality and loses it not, becomes one with that spirituality. And through that unity the spirit operates freely, and comes into due relationship with God. A vulgar saying has it, "The masses value money; honest men, fame; virtuous men, resolution; and Sages, the soul." Thus, the pure is that in which there is nothing mixed; the simple is that which implies no injury to the spirituality. And he who can keep the pure and simple within himself,—he is a divine man.
