"Five great enemies of peace inhabit with us - avarice, ambition, envy, anger, and pride;
if these were to be banished,
we should infallibly enjoy perpetual peace."
Francesco Petrarca.
What is...
Poison?
Anything which is more than our necessity is poison.
It may be power, wealth, hunger, ego, greed, laziness, love, ambition, hate or anything...
What is Fear…..?
Unacceptance of uncertainty.
If we accept this uncertainty, it becomes adventure…!
What is Envy?
Unacceptance of good in others.
If we embrace the good, it becomes inspiration…!
What is Anger?
Unacceptance of things that are beyond our control.
If we accept it, it becomes tolerance…!
What is Hatred?
Unacceptance of persons as they are.
If we accept another person unconditionally, it becomes love…!
Rumi, Persian Mystic, Poet and Scholar.
