Details
Abba Lot used to say, "Your key opens my door." The brother said to him, "What does that mean?" The old man said, "When someone comes to see you, you say to him, 'How are you? Where have you come from? How are the brethren? Did they welcome you or not?' Then you have opened the brother’s door and you will hear a great deal that you would rather not have heard." The brother said to him, "That is so. What should a man do, then, when a brother comes to see him?" Abba Lot said, "Compunction is the absolute master. One cannot protect oneself where there is no compunction." The brother said, "When I am in my cell, compunction is with me, but if someone comes to see me or I go out of my cell, I do not have it any more." The old man said, "That means that you do not really have compunction at all yet. It is merely that you practise it sometimes. It is written in the Law: 'When you buy a Hebrew slave, he shall serve six years and in the seventh he shall go free, for nothing. If you give him a wife and he brings forth sons in your house and he does not wish to go because of his wife and children, you shall lead him to the door of the house and you shall pierce his ear with an awl and he shall become your slave for ever'" (cf. Ex. 21:2-6). The brother said, "What does that mean?" The old man said, "If a man works as hard as he can at anything, at the moment when he seeks what needs, he will find it." The brother said, "Please explain this to me." The old man said, "The illegitimate will not remain in anyone’s service; it is the legitimate son who will not leave his father."
