' Smash the Jug '...

Smash the jug; you’re the water, not the jug. .............................. Let go of yourself; you are the ocean, not the stream. ................................... Take a journey beyond your self; you will see Oneness. ................................. Leave behind “I” and “you”; you will see you are Him. .................................... How long do you continue to travel around the world? Start your journey from your self, and travel within. ................................... Though you have been a seeker for years, you have never sought Him in yourself. ....................................... Take a step beyond your self, and you will find the crown of spiritual poverty on your head. ........................................... How could you travel towards His District? You are still a child chasing the bat and the ball. .......................................... Become polished like a mirror to reflect the Friend; don’t be a hypocrite with two sides, like a piece of paper, ..................................... Oh Meghrebi, you will not gain the bounty of His union until you let go of your self, …completely. ..............................Meghebi
