write that which has no end or limit.”

“4 :
...
الحقيقة هي السيد ، ..
و الحقيقة هي اسمه و كلامه ،
مع حب غير محدود

الناس يتضرعون و يصلون :
(اعطنا .. اعطنا)
و المعطي العظيم يعطيهم هداياه

فما التقدمة التي نستطيع وضعها أمامه ،
بعد كل هذا ، كي تشفع لنا في محكمته ؟


ما هي الكلمات التي نستطيع قولها
لاستحضار حبه ؟
...

في وقت السحر ،
بساعات اللذة الروحانية فيما قبل الفجر
أنشد اسمه
و تأمل عظمته و مجده
...
بواسطة الكرمة
(Karma)
حصلنا على هذا الرداء من الجسد المادي ..،
و بنعمته عثرنا على بوابة التحرر

اوه ناناك ، نعرف هذا جيدا:
الواحد الصحيح .. هو نفسه .. الكل

*****
*(الكارما هي مجموعة من تصرفاتنا السابقة في حيوات و تجسدات اخرى ، و التي ربما أدت الى اعادة تجسدنا مرة اخرى ، و عدم تحرر ارواحنا من التجسد كما يعتقد المؤمنين بها، و يعتقد السيخ بامكانية تحرر ارواحنا من التجسد بواسطة نعمة الله الحق)”
― Guru Nanak, quote from Sri Guru Granth Sahib

“2 :
...
أنت تفكر و تفكر
عشرة آلاف فكرة
.. و لكن و لا فكرة واحدة
سوف تعطيك
ماتسعى اليه حقا

تجلس في صمت
لتعثر على الصمت
.. و لكن الصمت لا يأتي ابدا.
***
روحك تغني دائما
أغنية إلهية
***
كل متاعبك
و كل همومك
لن تتلاشى ابدا
حتى و لو امتلكت
كل كنوز العالم

و رغم كل الحيل الذكية
التى تستخدمها
.. الحيل التي لا تعد و لا تحصى
لن يبقى معك
و لا حتى شخص واحد ...

كيف يمكننا أن نجد
بيت الحقيقة ؟


كيف يمكننا أن نكسر
هذا الجدار من الأكاذيب ؟

: سلم نفسك
و سر في طريق إرادة
(الروح)

آوه ناناك :
إنه المكتوب ،
و يجب أن نطيع ، و نسير في طريق إرادتها”
― Guru Nanak, quote from Sri Guru Granth Sahib

“((المانترا الرئيسية)) :
...
روح واحدة ..
وراء حركة الكون ..
توازنه ..
وحدته ..
استمراريته ..
وجوده ...

انها داخلي
.. و هي هويتي الحقيقية

هي الفاعل ..
و السبب من وراء الفعل

.. تحميني في كل الأحوال
، و في أي زمان أو مكان

لا تخشى شئ
.. و لا تعرف شئ
عن الظلم أو الرعونة ..


خالدة
.. لم تلد و لم تولد

تتدفق من خلال دورات
الميلاد .. و الموت
.. تتحرك بقدرتها .. و صفائها
*****
هذا الفهم سوف يأتي لك
كنعمة حلوة
كهدية ..

.. و في كل لحظة ستمر
سيظل تذكرك له مستمر
*****
.. منذ البداية
و تلك هي الحقيقة الوحيدة

في كل زمان او مكان
تلك هي الحقيقة

و حتى الآن ..
فتلك هي الحقيقة الوحيدة

آوه ناناك :
انها الوحيدة على الإطلاق”
― Guru Nanak, quote from Sri Guru Granth Sahib

“1 :
...
بإرادة الروح
تأتي أشكال لا تعد و لا تحصى ..

و بسبب هذه الإرادة
لا أستطيع حتى أن أتكلم ..

بإرادة الروح
((أي روح القدس))
تأتي جميع الأرواح

اندمج في هذه الروح
و كن عظيما ..

يإرادة الروح
يكون الخير و الشر

و بها يكتب
الألم و السلام
للجميع .

للبعض ، تحضر
الهدايا الوفيرة

للبعض ، تودي
إلى تيه لا نهاية له

كل شئ موجود ضمن تلك الإرادة
.. لا شئ كاذب من ورائها

آه يا ناناك :
إذا فهمت
الإرادة الإلهية
لن تجد
(نفسك)
شئ لتقوله”
― Guru Nanak, quote from Sri Guru Granth Sahib

“3 :
...
بعض الغناء لقوته ،
من يملك مثل هذه القوة !؟

بعض الغناء لعطاياه ..
لعلاماته و إشاراته

بعض الغناء لمجده المميز ،
عظيم هو و جميل

بعض الغناء لنعمة التحصل على معرفته ،
من خلال الدراسات الفلسفية الصعبة !

بعض الغناء لأنه من صمم الجسد ،
ثم قلّصه مرة أخرى إلى غبار

بعض الغناء لأنه من يأخذ الحياة ،
و يعيدها مرة أخرى !

بعض الغناء لأنه يبدو ..
بعيدا .. بعيدا جدا

بعض الغناء لأنه قريبا منّا جدا ،
الآن .. و في أي وقت مضى

بعض الغناء لأنه ،
لم يقصّر في ارسال من يعلموننا و يوعظوننا

ملايين و ملايين ، قدموا لنا
ملايين الخطب و الحكايات
...
المعطي العظيم مستمر في العطاء ،
بينما هؤلاء المستعطين ، يضجرون من عطاءه

و على مر العصور ، يعطي ،
.. و يستهلكون !

انه يقودنا بإشاراته
إلى السير على الطريق

اوه ناناك :
انه طريق يزهر
بالبهجة و السلام”
― Guru Nanak, quote from Sri Guru Granth Sahib

About the author

Popular quotes

“Gareth sucked in a breath. Hyacinth’s brother wasn’t going to make this easy on him. But that didn’t matter. He had vowed to do this right, and he would not be cowed.

He looked up, meeting the viscount’s dark eyes with steady purpose. “I would like to marry Hyacinth,” he said. And then, because the viscount did not say anything, because he didn’t even move, Gareth added, “Er, if she’ll have me.”

And then about eight things happened at once. Or perhaps there were merely two or three, and it just seemed like eight, because it was all so unexpected.

First, the viscount exhaled, although that did seem to understate the case. It was more of a sigh, actually—a huge, tired, heartfelt sigh that made the man positively deflate in front of Gareth. Which was astonishing. Gareth had seen the viscount on many occasions and was quite familiar with his reputation. This was not a man who sagged or groaned.

His lips seemed to move through the whole thing, too, and if Gareth were a more suspicious man, he would have thought that the viscount had said, “Thank you, Lord.”

Combined with the heavenward tilt of the viscount’s eyes, it did seem the most likely translation.

And then, just as Gareth was taking all of this in, Lord Bridgerton let the palms of his hands fall against the desk with surprising force, and he looked Gareth squarely in the eye as he said, “Oh, she’ll have you. She will definitely have you.”

It wasn’t quite what Gareth had expected. “I beg your pardon,” he said, since truly, he could think of nothing else.

“I need a drink,” the viscount said, rising to his feet. “A celebration is in order, don’t you think?”

“Er…yes?”

Lord Bridgerton crossed the room to a recessed bookcase and plucked a cut-glass decanter off one of the shelves. “No,” he said to himself, putting it haphazardly back into place, “the good stuff, I think.” He turned to Gareth, his eyes taking on a strange, almost giddy light. “The good stuff, wouldn’t you agree?”

“Ehhhh…” Gareth wasn’t quite sure what to make of this.

“The good stuff,” the viscount said firmly. He moved some books to the side and reached behind to pull out what looked to be a very old bottle of cognac. “Have to keep it hidden,” he explained, pouring it liberally into two glasses.

“Servants?” Gareth asked.

“Brothers.” He handed Gareth a glass. “Welcome to the family.”
― Julia Quinn, quote from It's in His Kiss

“Spectacles, on that strong-featured face…and his hair mussed as if he had been tugging absently on the front locks. All that combined with a plenitude of muscles and masculine virility was astonishingly…erotic. “When did you start wearing those?” Daisy managed to ask.

“About a year ago.” He smiled ruefully and removed the spectacles with one hand. “I need them to read. Too many late nights poring over contracts and reports.”

“They…they are very becoming.”

“Are they?” Continuing to smile, Swift shook his head, as if it had not occurred to him to wonder about his appearance.”
― Lisa Kleypas, quote from Scandal in Spring

“He snorted. "They were probably scared."
"Scared!" For some reason, that hurt, just a little. She felt her lower lip wobble. "I'm not that bad, am I?"
"Worse," he said cheerfully. "You're hell on wheels. You're just lucky I like hot rods”
― Linda Howard, quote from Mr. Perfect

“In diversity is life and where there's life there's hope, was the general sum of his creed, a modest! one to be sure.”
― Ursula K. Le Guin, quote from The Word for World is Forest

“I hope you find a place in your life when you can let go and be happy. But I’m not a dirty secret. I’m not bad and wrong for being comfortable with myself, and I won’t let you make me feel that way.”
― Lauren Dane, quote from Laid Bare

About BookQuoters

BookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.

We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.

Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
