The Holyman and the Scholar

 The Holyman lives a certain way and dies, then comes the Scholar, accounts everything said and acclaimed ot have been said or not said. Analyzes the frame and the storyline for an understandable and intriguing tale. One Holyman sacrifized his fathers oxen, he didn't own yet, because he was summoned for the Journey. Yet other slurred the ladies of the manor to be Cows of Bashan! Yet another got the poisoned soupe sweet and the drowning axe to float... And then there is the Scholar, who wants to repeat the process. What ever he cannot do in his own life -- that did not take place nor happen! Is this the Truth? Or is this the audacity and arrognace with a pinch of Avarice-- the real AAA we should have. You can be greedy for spiritual gains and achievements, the same, like you can rob a bank! This is the reason, in the East, such things are taught by koan and in Christianity, by parable. So that the wise man dost see, not the knowledgable dost understand... Only if you humble your mind, your heart and your spirit. If you offer yourself up for the Journey, not for the Ye Olde Success-story!! Why should God build up another King Solomon, who failed to be Jedidja? You're not your own best friend, how could you possibly be a Friend of God? Yet Scholars write down the name; life and deeds of Holymen, while being the sons of those, who used to derogate; stone or dismay them on their paths. Don't collect stories, of what Holymen did to God and to the people -- be your own story, of what you do, doing your thing, to achieve the same or even a greater mark!! Why settle with the same score, already done? Do your own thing, and be Yourself, not the next Isayah; the next Amos; the next Habakuk... You got your own name, what worhips the lord, what is it, and what is your exaltation!! If you know not, what it is, you also fail, to grasp, how the Holymen are and how they lived, save if you would fill the entire world with documentary and correspondence on that topic. Learn to walk with God, while walking your own path!!
