controlled his passions, this one is atheist, this one is delightful, this one is
without relihriousness. Till I reckoned with these ideas I remained dry, like
wood cut from a tree and thrown away is dry. Today, after having a glimpse
ofthis godly soul, I feel freshness in my arteries. The dry wood that I was has
become green and has become flexible as if living. Now forget the scripture
laws. 0 Yar Wali, burn the laws. This glimpse that is giving freshness to the
arteries is surely a glimpse ofthe Lord. Have you ever felt this ecstasy before?
You have been meeting the priests and bowed down to saints but you have
never felt this sensation that is happening in your body today. Have faith that
this is the image of the Lord or the Lord Himself.
In this thinking and in the ecstasy that he gotfrom the glimpse, he bowed

perceive that you are an image of the Lord or yourself the Lord. Please be
benevolent and bless me. Saying this, again he fell at the Guru's feet.
The Guru lifted his head again and then everybody went inside the house
and sat in the verandah of the house.
Yar Wali (with folded hands): 0 Lord sent When we love someone in the
world then that picture remains in the mind. But when I tried to remember my
spiritual guide, then his picture did not stay in my mind. I tried but got tired.
What is this magic that your godly glimpse has gone into my heart within a
moment by itself. Now you have come. You remove my shortcomings.
Guru: God bless you. Say, 0 Lord, 0 Lord. First, you got into sentimental
love. They create dirt on the mind. They do attract you and entice you but
