自知無知者 Faqir Chand (1886~1981)
The Unknowing Sage, Faqir Chond, said:
“This is the hard fact: the plain truth does not help in establishing centers; it does not increase the number of followers. But how is anyone to understand it?
阿拉伯文faqir,窮者之意;早期的伊斯蘭教托钵僧要立誓穷困一生。fakir常被用來稱呼信奉伊斯蘭教的瑜伽行者。
“自知無知者,無欺無自欺,乃能覺悟。”………阿張蘭石《魚神佛印》

Only after this realization: that I am a bubble of consciousness. A bubble of consciousness would not claim itself to be a yogi, sadhu, or a gnani. Had I not realized this Truth, I might have made claims of my greatness and got myself worshipped by you and exploited you.”
Faqir Chand
“He who thinks himself different from the Guru is in duality. Therefore, I lay stress time and time again on this fact that if you remain attached to the physical existence of any Guru, you shall not get liberation. Our mind is within and our thoughts are also within.
The questioner within is the disciple, and he who answers within is the Guru. When the questioner gets satisfactory answers to all his queries, he becomes silent.
When our mind does not have any more questions or when your mind has no desire to know anything, it becomes silent. This state of silent is known as the union of Guru and disciple.”
Faqir Chand
