Medicine Seeks Naught In The World

Lovingkindness is fallen a prey to the valiant (holy) man, (for) medicine seeks naught in the world but the pain (which it should cure). 
Wherever a pain is, the remedy goes there: wherever a lowland is, the water runs there. 
 If thou want the water of mercy, go, become lowly, and then drink the wine of mercy and become drunken. 
 The Masnawi Volume 2, 1938
