    Have fun with the close minded elementary understanding

    A Sufi Hymn to Awareness

    Neither subject nor object, neither seer nor seen Awareness is a flame which glows into itself

    For those who have the eyes, for those who wish to see It opens its heart and shows into itself

    Neither here nor there, its home is nowhere Like a wind it blows and blows into itself

    Beginning with a drop in each moment of Creation It soon becomes a river that flows into itself

    From where does it come and to where does it go? Like a breath it comes and goes into itself

    To nothing does it submit, 'cause nothing’s other than it To itself it bows, as it bows to itself

      How is you choosing to be selective and handpicking what you want to believe out of the vast and contradictory texts any different than those you criticize for doing the same with the materials for other reasons?

      You’re maintaining the same core as those who use religion as an excuse for violence. You can’t be a part of it without being a part of it. Your imaginary friend is the exact same one as theirs.
