"We must give something in exchange for all the riches and beauty nature gives us in abundance. You are surprised it isn't free? Well, it is free, but you too have to give something for free! How? By deciding to make use of all the faculties you possess so that you walk consciously on the path of light and sacrifice. Then you will be put to work in service to the divine, and God will repay you by giving you intelligence, kindness, beauty and so on. This is the ‘currency’ you can use to ‘pay’ for everything you take from nature.

Those who are not recruited on the heavenly staff receive nothing, so they are destitute and have no money to pay for what they take. They eat, drink, breathe, walk around and go about their business, but sooner or later the creditors, the forces of nature, come to strip them of their possessions: whether they like it or not, they must pay."
