It is not possible to count his praises; he is the helper of the helpless disciples. His name shines like the sun, he is the honored guide Hazrat Shaikh Hamza- the exalted. He is the helper of the distressed and the abandoned persons and also a guide to the stranded and also to the sinners. His mausoleum is a shelter to the defaulters and his resting place is superior to even the seven skies. His name is repeated by the tongues round the clock, because he is the honored guide, Hazrat Shaikh Hamza the exalted. He is the one who brought to life the dead horse, whose flesh too was eaten. …show more content…
I will go weeping and wailing to his mausoleum and request, "O' the exalted guide please help me out". I will say that your disciples have gone astray and each of them has run away from the prescribed path. There is no place of peace for them other than that of your mausoleum, O' the exalted guide help us out. In your time you have cleared Kashmir from the rubbish of conflict, O' the enlightened one. This time please destroy the irreligious forces. May my body nerves become the laces of your shoes? O' my exalted guide, may my body and soul get sacrificed for you? My neck carries a heavy load of my sins and a huge stock of my failings has got amassed. I have commited all ill-deeds and with this worry I have sown seeds of thorns in my
“You will surely grant and concede to me, that nothing more pernicious and fearful can happen to anyone than the loss of his soul.” (38).
Siddhartha is referred to by many names, of which include “The Enlightened One”, “The Awakened One”, and “The Great Physician. The Enlightened One because he was once in the dark, but now is in the light. The Awakened One because he was once asleep, but now is awake to the true reality of life. The Great Physician because he found the truth of life to overcome humanity’s
“The Dark Night of the Soul” is a chapter in the book, Writing at the End of the World by Richard Miller. In this chapter, Miller gives many examples of how reading and writing help the world, and he asks questions to find out if literature, and his teachings cause a change in the present day. Miller states, “Why bother with reading and writing when the world is so obviously going to hell?”(Dark Night of the Soul 433). I believe that this is the best statement to summarize what Miller is trying to get across. Why read? Why write? Is it going to matter in the end? Does it truly help anyone? These are all questions that arise from the author while reading this chapter.
Albeit foolish, and my appearance not shy of a monster, I lie truly a tragic victim of the gods,
Guilt is a result of sin, and sin is a result of misaction. In the novel, The Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini, the protagonist, Amir, goes on a journey to redeem himself for his sins.

Through this journey, Khaled Hosseini delivers the message that sins and guilt can always be atoned for.

How all occasions do inform against me, And spur my dull revenge! What is a man, If his chief good and market of his time Be but to sleep and feed? a beast, no more. Sure, he that made us with such large discourse, Looking before and after, gave us not That capability and god-like reason To fust in us unused. Now, whether it be Bestial oblivion, or some craven scruple Of thinking too precisely on the event, A thought which, quarter 'd, hath but one part wisdom And ever three parts coward, I do not know Why yet I live to say 'This thing 's to do; ' Sith I have cause and will and strength and means To do 't. Examples gross as earth exhort me: Witness this army of such mass and charge Led by a delicate and tender prince, Whose spirit with divine ambition puff 'd Makes mouths at the invisible event, Exposing what is mortal and unsure To all that fortune, death and danger dare, Even for an egg-shell. Rightly to be great Is not to stir without great argument, But greatly to find quarrel in a straw When honour 's at the stake. How stand I then, That have a father kill 'd, a mother stain 'd, Excitements of my reason and my blood, And let all sleep? while, to my shame, I see The imminent death of twenty thousand men, That, for a fantasy and trick of fame, Go to their graves like beds, fight for a plot Whereon the numbers cannot try the cause, Which is not tomb enough and continent To hide the slain? O, from this time
thee! Naught that I am, Not for their own demerits but for mine fell slaughter

One particular human emotion can cripple humans mentally and physically. It can cause people to do things they do not want to do. It can lead them to twist the truth and lie not only to themselves, but people around them as well. It is something that they cannot hide. It is more like a disease, however, it is better known as guilt. Along with guilt, comes dishonesty, shamefulness, peculiar behavior, and even suicidal thoughts. Guilt is a recurring theme in both Robertson Davies’ Fifth Business and William Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Every individual will experience guilt sometime in their life, but it is how they cope and handle it that defines who they are. Humans must face the feeling of guilt, accept

Alas, it is the baseness of thy fear/ That makes thee strangle thy propriety. / Fear not, Cesario. Take thy fortunes up. / Be that thou know’st thou art, and then thou art/ As great as that thou fear’st.
