Reason

Religions are many and diverse, but reason and goodness are one

Chinese Poem

All the birds have flown up and gone;

A lonely cloud floats leisurely by.

We never tire of looking at each other

Only the mountain and I.

The birds have vanished down the sky.

Now the last cloud drains away.

We sit together, the mountain and me,

until only the mountain remains.

روشن تر از خاموشی

روشن‌تر از خاموشی چراغی ندیدم

و سخنی به از بی‌سخنی نشنیدم

ساکن سرای سکوت شدم

و صد ره‌ی صابری درپوشیدم

مرغی گشتم

چشم او از یگانگی، پر او از همیشگی

در هوای بی‌چگونگی می‌پریدم

کاسه‌ای بیاشامیدم، که هرگز، تا ابد

از تشنگی او سیراب نشدم

Time!!

For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.

جنوب

نازنین ای همیشگی ای دوست

بوی عطر تن تو می آید

و مرا این گرفتار را

می برد به شهر اندیشه

تو بدان ای همیشگی ای دوست

قصه ی این جنوبی ولگرد

مرد شبگرد کوچه ها

این سیه مست پوچ خالی را

حرف ما را کسی نمی فهمد

نازنین ای همیشگی ای دوست

بوی عطر تن تو می آید

Writing

But words are things,and a small drop of ink,

Falling, like dew, upon a thought, produces

That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.

شطرنج

شطرنج ناز انداخته

وزغمزه ماتم ساخته

من در رخش دلباخته

او بی حسابم می برد

Soren Kierkegaard

Where am I?
Who am I?
How did I come to be here?
What is this thing called the world?
How did I come into the world?
Why was I not consulted?
And If I am compelled to take part in it,
Where is the director?
I want to see him.

Confused!

If you're not confused, you're not paying attention
