More From Fyodor Dostoevsky

If we can abstract pathogenicity and hygiene from our notion of dirt, we are left with the old definition of dirt as matter out of place. this is a very suggestive approach. it implies two conditions: a set of ordered relations and a contrevention of that order. dirt then, is never a unique, isolated event. where there is dirt there is a system. dirt is the by-product of a systematic ordering and classification of matter, in so far as ordering involves rejecting inappropriate elements.
Unique Order Hygiene
The way i see it, the difference between farmers and suburbanites is the difference in the way we feel about dirt. to them, the earth is something to be respected and preserved, but dirt gets no respect. a farmer likes dirt. suburbanites like to get rid of it. dirt is the working layer of earth, and dealing with dirt is as much a part of farm life as dealing with manure. neither is user-friendly but both are necessary.
Differences Friendly Earth

Dirt used to be a badge of honor. dirt used to look like work. but we've scrubbed the dirt off the face of work and consequently we've created this suspicion of anything that's too dirty.

When someone is seeking, it happens quite easily that he only sees the thing that he is seeking; that he is unable to find anything, unable to absorb anything, because he is only thinking of the thing he is seeking, because he has a goal, because he is obsessed with his goal. seeking means: to have a goal; but finding means: to be free, to be receptive, to have no goal. you, o worthy one, are perhaps indeed a seeker, for in striving towards your goal, you do not see many things that are under your nose.

The practice of altruism is the authentic way to live as a human being, and it is not just for religious people. as human beings, our purpose is to live meaningful lives, to develop a warm heart. there is meaning in being everyone's friend. the real source of peace amongst our families, friends and neighbours is love and compassion.
