The purity of the Sufi is due to his constant remembrance of God. The more he remembers God, the more he comes to know God; the more he comes to love God. This is why the act of polishing the mirror of the heart is the key to entering into a love-relationship with God... 
The Sufi’s heart, in other words, is like white snow because of its purity, which it has attained through the remembrance of God. It is only a clarified heart that can help us perceive the true beauty and harmony of the universe....
The Sufi ideal is to combine the inner and outer life to be active in the world, for example, as an economist or a politician, and at the same time to be inspired by attuning to the divine ideal.
The important thing is the balance between these two aspects of like so that the inner light can motivate and shine through worldly activities. Sufism is the message of digging out that water-like life which has been buried by the impressions of this material life.
