Withdrawing from people is easy; the hard part is preserving inner peace amid the crowds. "To be with the Truth among the people" teaches exactly this: that the heart does not forget God even while you work, speak, or laugh and enjoy yourself. It is to be close to Him in the very midst of life, without abandoning life. To live with love, courtesy and service is to turn every step into an act of worship.
A path that carries the wisdom of the ages into the present — shaped with love, illuminated by knowledge, opening from one heart to another.
