On helping others


A Madman after a mad-dream night
   Uttered:
     “God helps those who help themselves –
                And also
     God helps those who help others.”

Help (a joint Force) is doing something not for the Self.
     This joint Force is stronger.
Dao keeps on telling us … The Eternity is all in all.
     Yet, look … how we, the human world, deviate
     ourselves (time, space, being) in such a pitiful way,
     and more so, head on to one another.

“Mind your own business” … a good motto … Western way?
“Sweep the snow in front of your own door only” …. Chinese way.
     We are so afraid to lose.
     Yet, we are losing while we are getting –
     Is it not so? Let us think.

The cock crowing, the Madman became silent.
