Holy Books


Holy Books

Some consider book as holy
Some words in it
Some changes it brings in them.

Some read words in it
Discuss lines and in-betweens
Some feel what is transmitted

No matter in what language
For some source of peace & love,
For some reasons to argue and kill

What is received
Depends more on receiver
Less on what is served

"What is received
Depends more on receiver
Less on what is served"

Nice, Harshad.
We see what we want to see.
We read what we want to hear.
We receive what we want to get.

Absolutely..hitting the nail on the head.. Harshad ji, I have always told in my sessions to youngsters that. YOU CAN'T GIVE ME ANYTHING IF I DON'T WANT TO RECEIVE...

Very beautiful..

How true. Indeed it depends on the receiver.

Very well said Harshad!

Truly language is a tool to help us understand each other, it might be quite impossible to have order in this world and for chaos to reign if there is no language...:)

This makes me think of the idea that the teacher arrives when the student is ready. So it goes with text.

How beautiful and how accurate...What is received depends more on receiver...less on what is served. I thank you for your wisdom.
