Those who became complete didn't live this life in hypocrisy, didn't learn the meaning of things by reading commentaries.
Reality is an ocean; the Law is a ship. Many have never left the ship, never jumped into the sea.
They might have come to Worship but they stopped at rituals. They never knew or entered the Inside.
Those who think the Four Books were meant to be talked about, who heave only read explanations and never entered meaning, are really in sin.
Yunus means "true friend" for one whose journey has begun. Until we transform our Names, we haven't found the Way.
