She had a huge apartment, a big loft, and once the Master went there with a group of disciples. She was a great artist and the Master appreciated her art tremendously. One day she said to the Master, “How is it that I can’t earn a living from my painting, although I am a great artist?”

The Master said, “For that, one thing is necessary: purity — a pure life, a life of purity. ”

That was the day the disciple thought of leaving the Master. In a few weeks’ time, she left.
