Qallb chu nai buad sada'e dar w^ai
Dani che buad adam-i-khaki Khayyam
Fanus-1-khiyall wa chiraghe dar wai." Omar Khayyam.

' Man is a cup, his soul the wine therein,
Flesh is a pipe, spirit the voice therein,
O Khayyam have you fathomed what man is ?
A magic lantern with a light therein." (Whinfield).

From those habit is injustice, then
Expect not truth." Eastwick.

Khayyam was very wise in saying that we have not been able to fathom what man is and what the universe is and to try fathom it we have invented Gods, religions and all the rest. In this make-believe world we are warring humans sheer for articulating our faith shadowing others'. Every faith has a God and I am confused which God I have to run after.

" 'Al'alimu arafa 'Ijahila ra'innabu kana jahilan, ■wa'ljahilu la yarifa
'lallma I'ainnaliu ma kana 'aliman."

" The wise man understands the fool for he was once a fool himself, but
the fool does not understand the wise man because he was never wise."

Prov.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Rumi

" After all soul is linked to body

Though it in nowise resembles the body

The power of the light of the eye is mated with fat

The light of the heart is hidden in a drop of blood

Joy harbors in the kidneys and pain in the liver

The lamp of reason in the brains of the head.

These connections are not without a why and how

But reason is at a loss to understand the how." (Whinfield).

It is not always wise to be utterly foolish but it is always foolish to be overly wise.

Hariki Maqamat 21.

" Keep to truth though it scorch thee with the fire of threatening, and
seek to please God ; for the most foolish of mankind is he who angers the
master and pleases the slave." (Chenery).

Is there a demarcation that alienates Master from Slave? I believe in unity in which master and slave live in arms

Does it matter wherever I live? Can you do away with your desire? The desire of worshiping God, of alienating yourself from reality, of muddling yourself with so many scriptural trashes and the like.

I have not so much desire as commonsense!!
Write down a 'scriptural trash' if you can and I will take you as my prophet!!

The foolish chose the worst, the world's fatuity.
Each bird will flock with birds of its own feather still
The **** well knows his mate and follows where she will."

Well, I didn't know ''c**k' was a bad word appearing in the dictionaries all over!

Huh! Bugs without brains and a fish of scant water!!

If a fish of little water moves to a lot of water, that fish will jump around a lot.
