" For no one can be judge a criminal, until he recognizes that he is just such a criminal as the man standing before him, and that he perhaps is more than all men to blame for that crime. When he understands that , he will be able to be a judge. Though that sounds absurd, it is true. If I had been righteous myself, perhaps there would have been no criminal standing before me."
The brother Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoyesky.

For instance, if a man ceases to take any concern in worldly matters, conceives a distaste for common pleasures, and appears sunk in depression, the doctor will say, �This is a case of melancholy, and requires such and such prescription.� The physicist will say, �This is a dryness of the brain caused by hot weather and cannot be relieved till the air becomes moist.� The astrologer will attribute it to some particular conjunction or opposition of planets. �Thus far their wisdom reaches,� says the Koran. It does not occur to them that what has really happened is this: that the Almighty has a concern for the welfare of that man, and has therefore commanded His servants, the planets or the elements, to produce such a condition in him that he may turn away from the world to his Maker. The knowledge of this fact is a lustrous pearl from the ocean of inspirational knowledge, to which all other forms of knowledge are as islands, in the sea. -The Alchemy of Happiness, Imam Al-Ghazali Edited by peacemaker - 15 August 2011 at 5:25pm |
