The truth, the lesson to be learned is that in this world of shame and sorrow men must learn to see into each other deeply. They must learn to see clear through to their very essence. They must go beyond those good and bad qualities which only temporarily adhere to the ego-personality. Those qualities are only temporarily present in every man. Men must penetrate and enter into each other’s deepest substance. They must see clearly that the qualities that distinguish one man from another in this world are only illusions. It is not their true quality or substance
-Jalal al-Din Rumi
