Master Of The Whole World

Human is the master of the whole world. The Lord brought all creation into human being; solar system, oceans, mountains, trees, flowers, animals, everything...All were known by man, named by man. Man represents everything. Rumi says; " Human means the universe, the universe means human." Again he says, "Whatever you see in this world isn't outside of you. Whatever you want, want it from yourself; because you are everything."

Be like the sun for grace and mercy.
Be like the night to cover others' faults.
Be like running water for generosity.
Be like the dead for rage and anger.
Be like the earth for modesty.
Either appear as you are or be as you appear. Important thing is to seek and try to become that human...(to be continued)
