Hakim Sanai Quotes

• Stop weaving a net about yourself:
  burst like a lion from the cage.
   
• Worship him as if you could see him with your physical eyes;
  though you don't see him,
  he sees you.
   
• We tried reasoning
  our way to Him:
  it did not work;
  but the moment we gave up,
  no obstacle remained.
   
• In His presence, silence is the gift of tongues.
   
• At his door, what is the difference
  between Moslem and Christian,
  virtuous and guilty?
  At his door all are seekers
  and he the sought.
   
• The dumb find tongues,
  when the scent of life reaches them
  from his soul
   
• You have broken faith,
  yet still he keeps his faith with you:
  he is truer to you
  than you are to yourself,
   
• Apply yourself, hand and foot,
  to the search;
  but when you reach the sea,
  stop talking of the stream.
   
• Silence is praise - have done with speech;
  your chatter will only bring you harm and sorrow
   
• Unself yourself...
  until you see your self as a speck of dust
  you cannot possibly reach that place;
  self could never breathe that air,
  so wend your way there without self.
