True religion is not talk, or doctrines, or theories, nor is it sectarianism. It is the relation between soul and God.

For him who has completed the journey, for him who is sorrowless, for him who from everything is wholly free, for him who has destroyed all ties, the fever of passion exists not… He is like a pool, unsullied by mud; to such a balanced one, life’s wanderings do not arise. Calm is his mind, calm is his speech, calm is his action, who, rightly knowing, is wholly freed, perfectly peaceful and equipoised.
Surely my prayer and my sacrifice and my life and my death are (all) for Allah, the Lord of the worlds.
There’s nothing more advanced than relating with others. There’s nothing more advanced than communication – compassionate communication.
