Reminder to a Painter Friend

This should be ever in your mind

Money and machine can not (and should not) make humankinds.
Rather, humankinds can (and should) make money and machine.

Wherever be, our real world will be our inner world.
The world no one, other than we, can see and change.

Blaming other external aspects will be equal to
Escaping from our own inner world - Helplessness.
Or that would mean we have lost our inner world - Defeated in and by self.

Inner hollowness can’t be filled with
External possessions, wearing and beauties.
Rather it would burden the self / the hollowness.

Frightening physicality of desert is an external issue.
But on our inner world’s becoming of a desert, we won’t get an escape.

External enemies - we can fight and face
With the support of tricks, weapons and other people.
But if we become our own enemy -
No way to fight, face and defeat
With the support of tricks, weapons and other people.

Even the bad carpenters’ lamentation won’t help there.

After all we have to decide
Whether life has to be lived for physical living
Or for knowing what it is and for what it is.
