Sixth phrase:He alone gives life states that only He gives and sustains life and provides all its necessities, and that life’s sublime aims and important results are related to Him. This phrase calls out: Do not bother to shoulder life’s heavy responsibilities, or feel unease because the world is transient, or let life’s insignificant worldly fruits make you regret that you came to this world. Rather, the “life mechanism” in “your being’s ship” belongs to the Ever-Living and Ever-Self-Subsistent One, Who fulfills all life’s needs and expenditures. Further, life’s innumerable aims direct it to many important results, nearly all of which are related to Him. You are just a helmsman on that ship, so perform your duty properly. Receive your wages and be content with the resulting enjoyment. Ponder that ship’s preciousness and its valuable benefits, and consider the magnitude of its Owner’s generosity and compassion. Rejoice and give thanks, for performing your duty righteously will cause your life’s results to be recorded, in one respect, as good deeds securing your immortal life in eternity.
