1:18:02
In our order
we have two very old brothers,

1:18:08
the one is called brother Akhel,
1:18:11
the other brother Seze.
1:18:14
They constantly travel from one
monastery to another preaching there.

1:18:19
Once or twice a year
they come to us.

1:18:23
This is always
1:18:26
a very great event.
1:18:32
When brother Seze speaks,
1:18:36
it is like the song
of the birds in paradise.

1:18:39
Brother Akhel's speech
has almost the opposite effect.

1:18:43
He speaks badly and indistinctly.
1:18:47
The stronger the impression
made by brother Seze,

1:18:50
the quicker it evaporates,
until there is nothing left.

1:18:56
Brother Akhel makes
almost no impression,

1:18:59
but what he says penetrates
into the heart and remains there.

1:19:06
We all came to the conclusion
1:19:09
that the sermons of Brother Seze
came entirely from his mind

1:19:13
and acted only on our minds,
1:19:17
whereas those of Brother Akhel
came directly from his being

1:19:21
and acted on our being.
1:19:27
Yes, Professor, thinking and knowing
are quite different.

1:19:34
One must strive to know.
1:19:38
This alone can lead to our Lord God.
