Amidst the crowd of the fortunate and less-fortunate, I searched for wisdom, I searched for age… I guess I found both… The face faded into the human mass, as I hunted with my optical contraptions… Once caught, he whizzed past me and whispered in my ears, “you got me, didn’t you!” wink emoticon — at Darbar Hazrat Data Gunj Bakhsh رحمتہ اللہ علیہ.
“The good companion and the bad companion can be compared to a man who sells perfume and a blacksmith. When you visit the perfume seller he may give you a gift or you may purchase some musk from him and at the very least you leave with a sweet trace of his scent upon you. When you visit the blacksmith his flying sparks may burn your clothes and you will leave smelling of the smoke from his furnace.” —The Prophet Muḥammad (PBUH)
