Wisdom is Superior to Physical Strength


It is said that “Knowledge comes but wisdom lingers.”

Here “WISDOM” does not allude to physical power. It alludes to information control. 

Some time ago learning was control. Learning was control since few had it and in light of the fact that so little was known by anybody. Maybe a couple approached training, to realities, and to data. And after that it was control since it was elusive, difficult to get to, hard to arrange, and difficult to get it. None of this is still valid. 

Presently learning is something less. In the present life learning is anything but difficult to get. Realities and data are anything but difficult to discover, simple to sort out, and straightforward. Surge of data is accessible in the virtual universe of web. 

Information isn't worth as much as it once might have been. As though it isn't used with shrewdness, its yield turns out to be less productive. Wisdom and Insight are the things that empower us to fuse our insight legitimately to accomplish our objectives. So it isn't sufficient to know the actualities, the choices, the highlights of a few realities however it's more critical to utilize our insight control with intelligence (Wisdom). 

Thus, insight is ending up progressively important in the realm of rivalry. In deals, wisdom is found in agents. As insight is uncommon it turns out to be more significant. 

Wisdom is comprised of information, experience, and comprehension. Shrewdness enables a man to decide, to offer guidance, and to accomplish the most ideal result in a given circumstance. It is a profound comprehension of how things function. Intelligence is knowledge. It's the capacity to analyze and to examine a circumstance where much is obscure.

Poetry of Maulana Rumi

A moment of happiness,you and I sitting on the verandah,

apparently two, but one in soul, you and I.

We feel the flowing water of life here, you and I, 

with the garden's beautyand the birds singing.

The stars will be watching us,and we will show them what it is to be a thin crescent moon.

You and I unselfed, will be together, indifferent to idle speculation, you and I.

The parrots of heaven will be cracking sugaras we laugh together, 

you and I.

In one form upon this earth,and in another form in a timeless sweet land.

A HABIT THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR WORLD..!

Have you ever seen an owl at relatively close range?


If you haven’t, I suggest you should. They’re beautiful creatures. But beyond being beautiful, owls are deadly. Incredibly deadly. They are one of the most efficient hunters of the animal kingdom. They are designed to kill.

HERE’S WHAT MAKES AN OWL SO DEADLY:

They are largely nocturnal. Their vision increases at a time when most other animals’ vision decreases.

They are incredibly quiet. By the time an animal sees them, it’s too late.

They are fast. They can glide across the air at about 40 miles per hour from branch to ground. Some owl species go as fast as 50.

They have binocular vision. This means their prey is fully in focus while the rest of their surroundings are blurred/obscured.

The last one is of note because its what makes owls so majestic. Owls have an incredible ability to focus on one thing: hunting. If it’s not hunting at that moment, it’s thinking about hunting and preparing for the hunt.

They are obsessed. Nothing else matters during the hunt. That is their default programming.
Like the rest of nature, owls can teach us a good lesson.

THEIR PARTICULAR LESSON IS THIS: FOCUS...

Human beings are not designed to be elite killers, but we are designed to focus. There is a piece in the brain called the reticular activation system. This part of the brain filters out information from the outside world into “important/need to know” and “not important/don’t care”.

The reason why human beings have ascended to the top of the evolutionary chain is our ability to set goals and focus (amongst other things).
This part of our biology is absolutely amazing. But if you haven’t programmed it to focus on certain things, it will not serve you.

Why not?

We are absolutely bombarded with thousands of bits and pieces of information day in and day out.
How do you know what’s important? How do you know what’s not?
Our world takes advantage of those who do not know how to focus and set goals because they are easy prey.

If you don’t know how to focus on what’s important to you, you will literally be used as an ATM by people, companies, and institutions who will tell you what is good for you.
This is how people live where they don’t want to live, drive what they don’t want to drive, eat what they don’t want to eat, and spend what they don’t want to spend (or have).
Instead of being the owl, you have become the field mouse.
The habit of setting goals and focusing on them will transform your life and prevent this tragedy from occurring.

You determine what you want to achieve this day, this week, this month, and this year. Then you determine how you’re going to get there.
Once you've identified your goals, your brain will automatically start filtering out information that does not suit the goal.

If you have a goal of losing weight and getting fitter you’ll start paying attention to the small things.
“I think that’s a biiiit too much food on the plate. I don’t need to eat that much.”
“Hm…Target is running a 10% off on all fitness gear. I should probably get something from there….”
“That looks tempting…but I’ll have to pass. I’m on a diet. I’m trying to lose 10 pounds before the wedding.”

You see how that works? Your brain starts finding solutions to problems you wouldn't have paid attention to before.

SET YOUR GOALS AND FOCUS ON THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTYOU’LL BE LIKE AN OWL IN NO TIME, HUNTING AND CATCHING YOUR PREY WITH EASE.

Culture and Education


Classroom- Oxford University


"Culture" is refined and elevating education, more especially on its literary side. "Instruction" is simply the knowledge or information that one receives in the process of education."Culture", as Mathew Arnold has defined it " is familiarity with the best thoughts, expressed in the best terms by the ablest man."

GREAT POET & SAINT SHAH ABDUL LATIF BHITTAI

The great saint Shah Abdul Latif was born in 1102 Hijra in a small village called "Hala Haveli". His father's name was Shah Habib. He was the scholar of Arabic and Persian. He was also a poet and musician. He was one of the greatest saint who won people's hearts by his kind nature and gentle ways. Shah Latif is lovingly called "Lal Latif" by his devotees. His ancestors had migrated from Hirat (Afghanistan) to Sindh (Pakistan).

At the age of twenty, he married a good lady. After the death of his father, he left his home and went to live on a mound "Bhit" at a place a little distant from his village. Shah Latif had a very sensitive mind. His heart was filled with the love of God. There is a lake nearby the mound. He used to spend much of his time sitting on the bank of this lake where he prayed to God and composed poetry in his praise. He also invented a simple musical instrument which had a single string to vibrate and he called it "Tambooro". This musical instrument is still popular all over the Sindh.

Lal Latif died in 1165 Hijra on the mound where he had lived and was buried there. A famous king of Sindh, Ghulam Shah Kalhoro, was so devoted to him that he built a shrine over his grave. Latif's devotees collected his poetry and this collection came to be called the "Risalo Of Shah Abdul Latif". Latif's "URS" is held at his shrine every year on 14th Safar. Thousands of people gather, listen to the Saint's songs, sung while playing "Tambooro" and offer their prayers. Recently a library, a rest house and a museum have been built there.

Latif's message is the message of love and equality. He believed in the brotherhood and equality of humanbeing and in pleasing God by good deeds.
