Ch 02 The Morals Of Dervishes Story 10

One asked the man who had lost his son:

 `O noble and intelligent old man! 
 As thou hast smelt the odour of his garment from Egypt 
 Why hast thou not seen him in the well of Canaan?? 

He replied:

 `My state is that of leaping lightning. 
 One moment it appears and at another vanishes. 
 I am sometimes sitting in high heaven. 
 Sometimes I cannot see the back of my foot. 
 Were a dervish always to remain in that state 
 He would not care for the two worlds.?
