]]> Comment on And Love Was Our Mother by Josef Sefton http://thecorner.wordpress.com/2013/05/03/and-love-was-our-mother/#comment-44011 Tue, 07 May 2013 04:26:12 +0000 http://thecorner.wordpress.com/?p=6544#comment-44011 One of the great discoveries I have been blessed to be able to make is that the LORD God can bless us with the correct insight that He is the revealer of truth. If we say “Yes” to believing His teachings He reveals His wondrous wisdom to us, yet if we stubbornly cling to disbelieving Him He will conceal His wisdom from us.

Truly God is love. He is the gracious, generous giver of life who compassionately nurtures us through the ups and downs of life.

Of course, it is important to share other things too, but for myself, my true intention is to see the One through another’s eyes, that my love might grow.

The name of your blog is interesting too. In Sufi tradition, we are taught to be in seclusion whilst in the midst of company (khalwat dar anjuman). In other words, we’re always in that monastery without walls. O Merciful One! May we see You before us always.

Thank you for REAL interfaith dialogue…an opening up and sharing of previously unexplored aspects of the Divine magnificence.

– a line from one of His (ra) poems from His (ra) Diwaan that I am holding and have gotten from ketab.com

– Every poem in the Diwaan is an ocean filled with wonders, and each line is like a wave within the Ocean, inviting towards the Treasures through The Knowledge and The Wisdom!!!
