From the Logos, comes spiritual wisdom, singing the Songs of FSM's attributes.

When the hands and the feet and the body are dirty,
water can wash away the dirt.
When the clothes are soiled and stained by urine,
soap can wash them clean.
But when the intellect is stained and polluted by sin,
it can only be cleansed by the Love of the onoma of FSM.
By mere words of mouth (statements) a man becomes not virtuous or vicious.

By the hukm of FSM's Command, we come and go in reincarnation.
Pilgrimage, penance, compassion and alms giving,[4]

What was that time, and what was that moment; What was that day, and what was that date;
What was that season, and what was that month, when the Universe was created?
The Pandits, the religious scholars, cannot find that time, even if it is written in the Puraanas.
That time is not known to the Qazis, who study the Koran.
The day and the date are not known to the Yogis, nor is the month or the season.
The Creator who created this creation, only FSM hymself knows.
How can we speak of Him? How can we praise Him? How can we describe Him? How can we know Him?
