To have a desire for the good act done is to eat unripe fruit. To have a desire to get the result of what one does is like eating unripe fruit. It is like following a shadow that will never be got. On the other hand, to do things because there is joy in doing it is to enjoy putting in effort. This also ensures that there is fruit attained at the right time. When we are able to do things because we enjoy them, we are able to be free from expectations. And because we are free from expectations and desires, yet working towards our aim, we find ourselves attaining everything without any difficulty. We are patient and wait with joy for the fruit of our effort to ripen.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.
