Fools

Sunday, October 25, 2015














Long is the night to the wakeful;
long is the league to the weary;
long is Sa'msaara to the foolish
who know not the Sublime Truth. ( DHAMMAPADA 60)

If, as the disciple fares along,
he meets no companion who is better or equal,
let him firmly pursue his solitary career.
There is no fellowship with the foolish. ( 61)

"Sons have I; wealth have I":
Thus is the fool worried.
Verily, he himself is not his own.

Whence sons? Whence wealth? ( 62)
