In Our Spiritual Journey Poem by Mohammad Younus

In our spiritual journey,
The pursuit of peace and contentment,
Is divine obligation.
Those who embrace contentment find,
Themselves blessed with spiritual ecstasy.
A wisdom born of divine knowledge!
They understand that coveting what they lack,
Is truly futile, much like chasing a butterfly.
When you chase it to catch it in your hand,
It is all likely that you will fail to grab it.
But if you are calm and contented,
That butterfly will come and sit,
Of its own upon your shoulder.
True fulfillment comes not from pursuit,
But from inner calm and acceptance.
Material and spiritual welfare alike,
In contentment and satisffaction are found.
Be contented with your actions and deeds.
In this state, happiness and success,
Naturally will find their way to you.
True fulfillment comes from within,
Through acceptance and inner peace,
Rather than external pursuits!
