Advice For My Child of Heaven's Paradise
Do not look or wait for heaven’s kingdom, for it is in and outside of you
Never tremble to ask for a hand to get through
Pray without hypocrisy or you will fool just yourself
Pray every day and night till the last breath itself
Do not let the left hand know the crafting of your right hand
Build your house on the cornerstone, not drifting sand
Watch with care all animals and plants as your eye’s pupil
Love your friends as your own light without a scruple
Make peace with yourself to make the mountain of this world move
Do what is bright even when your colleagues reprove
Ride the heavenly horse, since you can’t ride two as a pair
Hear the neighing of heaven’s pleroma through prayer
