"Silence is the language of God, all else is poor translation" Mevlana Rumi
Afsar Barlas

In generosity and helping others, be like a river. In compassion and grace, be like sun. In concealing others' faults, be like night. In anger and fury, be like dead. In modesty and humility, be like earth. In tolerance, be like a sea. Either exist as you are or be as you look...
Mevlana Rumi

Hiddet ve asabiyette ölü gibi ol, Tevazu ve alçakgönüllülükte toprak gibi ol, Hosgörülülükte deniz gibi ol, Ya oldugun gibi görün, Ya da göründügün gibi ol.
Mevlana Rumi

“Anything is one of a million paths. Therefore, a warrior must always keep in mind that a path is only a path; if he feels that he should not follow it, he must not stay with it under any conditions. His decision to keep on that path or to leave it must be free of fear or ambition. He must look at every path closely and deliberately. There is a question that a warrior has to ask, mandatorily: 'Does this path have a heart?”
Don Juan Matus (from one of the book of Carlos Castaneda)



“No mirror ever became iron again;
No bread ever became wheat;
No ripened grape ever became sour fruit.
Mature yourself and be secure from a change for the worse.
Become the light.”
Mevlana Rumi
