Let anyone who repents of the sin of which he may have been culpable have recourse to this best of all expiation, remembrance of God. By concentrating his mind in God at dawn, at night, at sunset and midday, a man shall be quickly cleansed from all guilt. The whole heap of worldly sorrows is dispersed by meditating on God, and his worshiper, looking upon heavenly fruition as an impediment to happiness, obtains final emancipation,. He who is devoted to God in silent prayer or adoration is impatient even of the glory of the king of gods. Of what avail is ascent to the summit of heaven if it is necessary to return from thence to earth. How different is the meditation on God, which is the seed of eternal freedom. Hence, the man who thinks of the Lord day and night, goes not to hell after death, for all his sins are atoned for.
