What a paradox it is that in autumn we harvest, yet, if we want spring flowers and crops, we must also plant. The spiritual life is a paradox of continuous planting-harvesting-planting-harvesting. Spiritual practices, like compassion and conscious living bear fruit in acts of justice where we learn what more there is to plant.
