The brothers said, 'One of the old men used to say, A man will have no care, and he will contemplate in silence, and will cover up himself; three meditations will teach purity.' What is the meaning of these three words?' The old man said, ' ' A man will have no care' means that he will not care concerning the shortcomings of others, and that all his anxiety will be concerning his own shortcomings. And, 'He will contemplate in silence' means that he will not speak even concerning matters of spiritual excellence if it will trouble any man or condemn him. And 'He will cover up himself means that he will not reveal his life and deeds, but as far as possible, he will be unknown and unhonoured. Now by these things is established the purity of heart which sees God in a revelation of light.'
