The Wisdom of Life

43 How can I become a recipient
of wisdom?

Wisdom is written on every leaf of a tree, on every atom
of a molecule! All you need to do is to develop the ability
to ‘read’ wisdom. People have become violent and that is
what leads to problems. If one becomes as peaceful as a
bird, then there will be no issue. The Prophet said:

God will settle those people in Paradise
whose hearts will be like the hearts of birds.
(Sahih Muslim, hadith no. 2840)

This means that one who lives with the heart of a bird in
this world will get a place in Paradise in the Hereafter.
The matter revolves around your expanding your horizon,
training your way of thinking and saving yourself from
distraction.
