Quote by Swami Dhyan Giten

“Politics is a game of power. The politician and the soldier is interested in conquering the world and achieve world dominion and the meditator is interested  in onquering himself. To conquer somebody else is to destroy, to reduce the other to a thing.The effort to conquer somebody else is inhuman. The real victory is alwaysinner. It is a victory over yourself. The politician and the soldier fight with others, the meditator has nofight with anybody in the world. He has dropped all conflicts, all struggle. He does not think in terms of war. He is at peace with existence. He has surrendered to existence, hence there is no question of war. But in that surrender, he becomes a conqueror, because he becomes a vehicle of the whole. He is no more apart, he is no more separate from the whole.  He is no more small and confined. He has become one with the whole.”

“I am not a magician, but I wish I could make an hourly circle from the world whose people are still servants of it and deadfully at the service of its perishable dependents. I wish then to hang it on the moon in a way that spins consecutively around years, from birth to death of every human, in every fraction of a second. That's how all people, regardless of their differences, are reminded of the smallness of their existence on earth, whether they are born or not. And, that's how I could make sure that the clock hands can only create good humans henceforth, whether I am a magician or not. Happy New Year 2024 From a borderless and warless world, Mostafa Sarabzadeh”
