Float Peacefully

Water leaking into the boat is the ruin of the boat,
But water under the boat is its support.
Since Solomon cast out the desire for wealth and possessions from his heart,
He did not call himself by any name but "poor".
The stoppered jar, though in rough water, floated because of its empty heart.
When the wind of poverty is in anyone, he floats peacefully on the surface of the water of this world. Masnawi, Volume I:985-8
