"When I despair, I
remember that all through history the ways of truth
and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and
for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall.
Think of it ... always."

ACT
GREAT
What is the
key
To untie the knot of your mind’s suffering?
To untie the knot of your mind’s suffering?
What
Is the esoteric secret
To slay the crazed one whom each of us
Did wed
Is the esoteric secret
To slay the crazed one whom each of us
Did wed
And who can
ruin
Our heart’s and eye’s exquisite tender
Landscape?
Our heart’s and eye’s exquisite tender
Landscape?
Hafiz has
found
Two emerald words that
Restored
Me
Two emerald words that
Restored
Me
That I now
cling to as I would sacred
Tresses of my Beloved’s
Hair:
Tresses of my Beloved’s
Hair:
Act
great.
My dear, always act great.
My dear, always act great.
What is the
key
To untie the knot of the mind’s suffering?
To untie the knot of the mind’s suffering?
Benevolent
thought, sound
And movement.
And movement.
