#12 How the Wise Live in the World (2)
The Work
The work of the master is to comfort individuals and comfort the world; the work of the master is to keep away all disasters that might be caused by the disharmony of the nature of individuals and of the collectivity. The work of the Master is not usually to heal the feeble or right the weak, but just when that person is in a situation where he is opposed by a powerful enemy. The work of the saint is to console the wretched, to take under the wings of mercy and compassion those left alone in life, and to bless the souls that come their way.
