Holiness

"One should, and one must, truly live with all people and things, but one most live with all these in holiness, one must hallow all which one does in one´s natural life. No renunciation is commanded. When one eats in holiness, when one tastes the flavor of the food in holiness, then the table becomes an altar. When one works in holiness, he raises up the sparks that hide themselves in all tools. When one walks in holiness across the field, then the soft song of all herbs, which they voice to God, enter into the song of our soul. When one drinks in holiness to each other with one´s companions, it is as if one read together in the Torah. When one dances the roundelay in holiness, brightness shines over the gathering. When a husband is united with his wife in holiness, then Shekinah rests over them."
