Anything done out of craving or fear rather than love will destroy, whereas only what is done through love can create. This is a general rule because of how love, craving and fear are defined; love will do only that which is the best for that which it loves, whereas fear and craving will bring it harm in trying to do so. However, it must be noted that in everything we do there is both at least some love and some craving and fear involved, so that everything we do will therefore both create and destroy. We cannot be perfect in fully doing everything out of love alone.
We should to do whatever we do with greater love than we do it with fear and craving, to let our love be greater than our fear and craving in what we do; otherwise we should not do it at all, as it would then bring more harm than it would bring growth. If we really are to do something but our craving and fear to do so is greater than our love, then we should wait as long as it remains so, until our love has become greater.
