I fasted to realise God;
ThereforeGod laughed at my earth-life of stupidity.
I cried to realise God;
ThereforeGod smiled at my Heaven-life of necessity.
I prayed to realise God;
ThereforeGod appreciated my earth-life of sincerity.
I meditated to realise God;
ThereforeGod embraced my Heaven-life of reality.
