Common Feel Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

Fa Hein the monk, crossed the Indus
In Gandhara, for Bodhisattva’s alms-bowl,
Takshasilaand Purushapuraand on.
Lebid ben RabiatAlamary’s Elegy, -Arabic
Qassida. For abandoned adobe, whence once
The fair one lived. Confucius taught
The same moral code, the same.
Ancient Chinese poetry, his singular feat (The She-King) .
Religion hath human emotions robbed
What a cruel God, -hence all praise unto him.
Asabiyyah is rule by group feel, in four generations,
The master-client relationship wanes. Today
Every client is a master. Group feel is common feel.

The scholar Tsang once said of himself: “On three points I examine myself daily, viz, whether, in looking after other people’s interest, I have not been acting whole-heartedly; weather in my intercourse with friends, I have not been true; and weather after teaching, I have not myself been practicing what I have taught.” The Analects by Confucius
