Religion(Includes a verse by Mirza Bedil) |
The teaching of the sage of Western philosophy is
“Those seeking the Invisible Existence are ignorant |
If the form is unfamiliar to sight
Would the Sheikh also be an idol-maker like Brahmin? |
The foundation of modern knowledge is on the tangible
In this age the wine-bottle of Faith is shattered |
What is known as din is an immature frenzy
Which is repulsive to human imagination” |
But the philosophy of life is saying something else
This secret has been divulged to me by the Perfect Preceptor |
“With every perfection a little distress is welcome
However, perfect the Intellect, it is not good without Love.” |
