September 6, 1980

Excerpt from the speech made by Dr. Celso Charuri at the Donation Ceremony of the General Center for the Tithe to Serviço Social Batuíra, São Paulo, Brazil

Walking and thinking, you know, annoyed, asking for strength for feeling too small, and for trying to take away the filth from people’s heads and put those Principles that one day appeared on the Earth, I started looking for friends. And began to base myself on Friendship as Alliance, as Unity, someone who had the same ideal; not friendship as normally understood by everybody, or by most. And searching by ideal, I started to find: found this one here, found that one there, found that other over there… There came a day when I found myself surrounded by friends. Only one test was missing. The test of Fidelity to the Principle of Friendship. On that day, we began thinking about how and what to do to take the world out of this filth, of this poverty, of this hypocrisy. Because we don’t intend to fix the world, but only to be able to give our part. And we verified that it was very difficult to be able to help.

On that day, summoning the guys, our friends, we made the proposition: a proposition that was written thousands of years ago. To be way more precise, 2,000 years ago. And this proposition was based, actually, on our situation. We had to give thanks for the happiness of being and having. Being somebody and having matter.

How to proceed? How to proceed? It was so difficult! After all, a camel can’t pass through the eye of a needle, if the rich are ever to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

And on that day, we began to ask: Who is rich? Who is rich? And if wealth is matter. And we finally found that wealth is matter only if this matter is given, when the Principle of Goodness is present. And then we comprehended true wealth, the wealth of Being, in the hands of those who give.
