The Vanities Of All Others

Infinite Are The Paths And Infinite The Opinions.

God Laughs On Two Occasions. He Laughs When The Physician Says To The Patient's Mother, 'don't Be Afraid, Mother; I Shall Certainly Cure Your Boy.' God Laughs, Saying To Himself, 'i Am Going To Take His Life, And This Man Says He Will Save It!' The Physician Thinks He Is The Master, Forgetting That God Is The Master. God Laughs Again When Two Brothers Divide Their Land With A String, Saying To Each Other, 'this Side Is Mine And That Side Is Yours.' He Laughs And Says To Himself, 'the Whole Universe Belongs To Me, But They Say They Own This Portion Or That Portion.'

Pray To God That Your Attachment To Such Transitory Things As Wealth, Name, And Creature Comforts May Become Less And Less Every Day.

The Winds Of God's Grace Are Always Blowing, It Is For Us To Raise Our Sails.

Those Who Wish To Attain God And Progress In Religious Devotion, Should Particularly Guard Themselves Against The Snares Of Lust And Wealth. Otherwise They Can Never Attain Perfection.
