"If
the mystic succeeds he has everything he needs -
even if he should become an outcast of society.
In case he fails he fails entirely, totally and miserably.
Nothing to hold on to: no funds tucked away, no lobby,
no social network to fall back on, no craft or science
in which he can be called an expert. Only the soul -
ah, but the soul went out of fashion sometime
in the late 2oth century..."
(From
"Letter to an American friend" , Summer 2000)

the jasmin blossoms
unperturbed"

"Who
was that man who walked away
(who just got up and simply walked away)?"

What is a racist?
"A
racist is someone who makes a pre-selection with persons
