Желание

Machine translation from the original · Show original
In faith, the means of salvation belong not to the strongest, but to those who wish (1). The desire is rewarded by achieving the desired goal (2). By desire I mean the inclination of the mind and the encounter with something that is in our power, but we should not desire anything else (2). The source of lights - the unnameable, incomprehensible Light - flees from the speed of the mind approaching It, always forestalls every thought, so that in our desires we continually stretch to a new height (2).
