Our inability to discipline our egos and appetites is NOT the cause our oppression.

The CAUSE is the inability of our oppressors to discipline theirs…all their systems extract and destroy.

But our egos and appetites do condition and compromise our efforts at solidarity and collective liberation.

This is the discipline that African Sufis used to arm themselves for social struggle.

Our efforts at external liberation from the oppressors in the world will be forever compromised if we cannot face the oppressors within our own breasts.

Our hearts all bear the scars of empire. We must heal.

to build a whole universe around you — to see the stars, the moons of that sky — to be in deep awe & admiration. "Khudi mein dhoob ja ghafil."

you build the *world of lights* upon the Nothing. You let the Light shine only after closing your eyes to all the darkness. Then it follows you — wherever you may go.

To clean up myself for the professional world has always left a sour taste in my mouth. God accepts me as I am — and you do not? I will take the necessary steps, I will see it as abandoning the ego. I will recognize that this self is nothing but an I, who clings upon whatever identity provided.

All jokes aside it's really fucked up to see so many people on here celebrating murder. No one here is the judge of who deserves to live or die. That's the job of the AI algorithm the insurance company designed to maximise profits on your health and no one else

It will take the hard hearted decades to ascertain what the brittle hearted have in mere moments.

It is enough for me to walk with confidence. It is enough for me to assume the best of peoples' opinions and remain calm with peace if ever presented with otherwise. It is enough for me to sit in deep contemplation without guilt for the world's affairs. It is enough for me to Know.

It’s always “sun’s out guns out,” but what about peace? Where’s the “sun’s down guns down” ?

I'm done laboring to make sense for a world that never cared enough to do the same for me.
