Chapter 55: Clothing and footwear for the community (paragraphs 3-5)

The superior ought to inspect the beds at regular intervals to see that private possessions are not being hoarded there. (From  para. 3 of Ch. 55 of Saint Benedict's Rule, trans. by Patrick Barry, OSB, 1997.)

Hoarding is a function of my ego, and my ego hoards more than things. Fidelity to the mantra allows the Spirit to inspect my soul, and this simplifies me.
