My heart has become capable of every form: It is a pasture for gazelles And a monastery for Christian monks, And the pilgrim's Ka'ba, And the tablets of the Torah, And the book of the Koran. I follow the religion of Love: Whatever way love's camel takes, That is my religion, my faith.

Your personal nature seeks its paradise.

The ignorant one does not see his ignorance as he basks in its darkness; nor does the knowledgeable one see his own knowledge, for he basks in its light

You are My sight, so have faith. You are My Face, so veil yourself

While you are alive, your worldly self is like a collector of benefits from Allah's bounties, which come to you from myriads of hands.

Each person is oriented toward a quest for his personal invisible guide, or . . . he entrusts himself to the collective, magisterial authority as the intermediary between himself and Revelation.

I believe in the religion of Love, whatever direction its caravans may take, for Love is my religion and my faith.
