Tolstoy Farm (1910)

Gandhi:
Between theory and practice, some talk as they
were two — making a separation and a difference
between them. Yet wise men know that both can
be gained in applying oneself whole heartedly to
one. For the high estate attained by men of contemplative theory, that same state achieve the
men of action. So act as the ancient of days old,
performing works as spiritual exercise.

Miss Schlesen, Kasturbai,
Mrs. Naidoo:
Such a one is honorable who gives his mortal
powers to worthy work not seeking gain. Do
the allotted task for which one is fit, for work
is more excellent than idleness and the body’s
life proceeds not, lacking work. Such an earthly
task do free from desire, you will perform a high
task.

Kallenbach:
When the motives and the fruits of a man’s actions are freed from desire, his works are burned
clean by wisdom’s fire, the white fire of truth.
When he casts off attachment to his deeds, a
man embarks on his work ever content, on none
dependent. With thought and self controlled,
giving up all possessions, he cares for his bodily
maintenance without excess; taking what chance
may bring, surmounting all dualities, the same
in success and failure.
