you are rich if

Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power. If you realize that you have enough, you are truly rich.

the human being is the representative of the Creator in this world

We need to tear down the house of the ego and dig under its foundations in our unconscious to find the treasure of our true Self.

once a Sufi said

Have a mind that is open to everything and attached to nothing

we are learning

When we look at modern man, we have to face the fact that modern man suffers from a kind of poverty of the spirit, which stands in glaring contrast to his scientific and technological abundance; We've learned to fly the air like birds, we've learned to swim the seas like fish, and yet we haven't learned to walk the Earth as brothers and sisters.

freedom

Let me be a free man, free to travel, free to stop, free to work, free to trade where I choose, free to choose my own teachers, free to follow the religion of my fathers, free to talk, think, and act for myself--and I will obey every law or submit to the penalty.

vessel of divine love

The spiritual journey is NOT a competition. It's a journey of self-awakening and self-discovery. It's about finding out the unique and amazing ways Spirit wants to use YOU. Know that there is a higher plan for you, a wonderful plan. But the secret is that you can only discover this plan by being you.

master

No man is free who is not a master of himself.
