The word “cultivation” expresses the good work someone does in the garden, in their field or in any good or bad object. So if you decide to increase evil and doubt in your life then you need compassion, compromise, ignorance, and ultimately waiving of any claim.
But if you decide to increase the fruit of your labor, to cultivate your field better, to increase your level of faith, then you need agility, wisdom for everyday life, and eventually claiming every good that someone wants to deprive you of, or its conquest requires competition; hard struggle that you personally have to start and finish.
No one will fight and will not claim something for you! No one can replace you in the race of the competition. Even if someone wants to, it is explicitly forbidden by law. No one can give an exam on your behalf. It is a personal matter, and that is beyond question.
The same applies to the issues of living faith. Growth and conquering is a completely personal affair, and the idea that others will care for you is deceitful illusion and ill imagination.
