Whatever I do - such as my work, my yoga, making love, meditation, working - I do with all my heart, wholeheartedly, by throwing myself away and letting life take its natural course completely. But if my manner becomes habitual or self righteous, then anything I do will be wrong. It will be good for nothing.
