Are you doing this work to facilitate growth or to become famous?
Which is more important? Acquiring more possessions? Or becoming more conscious? Which works better? Getting or letting go? There's a problem with owning a lot. There's a problem with getting more and more. The more you have and the more you get, the more you have to look after and the more you might lose. Is that owning or being owned?
