an absolute self
"The greatest lie in the world is told touching the holy scriptures in court.
And the truest of all is said by drinking the wine in the bar."
- Mirza Ghalib
The universe is mine, I belong to this universe
I am cherished in the true bar of natural love
I am rude without myself but a true fanatic with me
I never went to religious people to learn myself
I didn't want to touch the scriptures, I didn't want to learn by imitation
I did not look for a different partner except the true self
Existing within me is I- an absolute self
I am a drunkard partner in my truth with the drink of absolute self-wine
Don’t want to be a hypocrite shield by being a part of the scriptures' sign
