God in revelation to Moses by Rumi
"Did you come as a Prophet to unite, or to sever?
I have given each being
a separate and unique way
of seeing and knowing
and saying that knowledge.
What seems wrong to you
is right for him.
What is poison to one
is honey to someone else.
[...]
I am apart from all that.
Ways of worshipping
are not to be ranked as better
or worse than one another.
Hindus do Hindu things.
The Dravidian Muslims in India do what they do.
It's praise, and it's all right.
It's not me that's glorified in acts of worship.
It's the worshipers!
I don't hear the words they say.
I look inside at the humility."
- God in revelation to Moses (by Rumi)
My favorite quotations..
“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.” by Robert A. Heinlein
"We are but habits and memories we chose to carry along." ~ Uki D. Lucas
