Realize that you know nothing and you are nobody. It is no easy thing to attain this realization. It doesn’t come with teaching and instruction, nor can it be sewn on with a needle, or tied with a thread. This is a gift from God and a question of whom he bestows it and whom he causes to experience it.

Pir asked Abu Sa'id whether he wanted to talk to god? Of course, I want to.

At first God implanted in man’s heart a sense of need and a longing desire and sorrow. Then he looked upon that need and sorrow with Favour and pity and placed: His gift within the heart and that gift is called the mystic shrine -(sir) of God. It is immortal and cannot be destroyed, for it is continually contemplated by God and belongs to Him.
