Love your vast lands and plains where Hydyr[1] strolls...

Love your mountains and seas where Kowus and Kyýas travel.

Go see for yourself where Görogly and Togrul Beg fought, and love the mountains Magtymguly loved...

Love the human, the most miraculous being in the world! Love the nature that is endlessly at your service. Love the trees that call out to you with their flowers, leaves, branches and fruits.

A man can be a saint through climbing the ladder of love.

A man can incorporate himself into nature and become as pure and fine as nature. From such a stance and understanding, Allah the Most Exalted is not far away.

If the oceans and seas did not rise and fall in the wind, then their waters would lose their beauty and have a dull smell.

If soft winds did not blow over the seas, then what would touch man’s face gently? Who or what would clean up the air man breathes!

The waves of the lively seas, and the soft winds of the earth are indeed their smiles.

Smile, for the smile is the door to man’s world.

May smiles start from your very eyes. For that smile is the door that opens to the world of the soul.

They asked Joseph the Prophet: “What makes you so incomparably beautiful?” He replied:
  “Throughout my whole life I have engaged in deeds that would please and give benefits to others. I smiled at them, and this made me beautiful in the eyes of those who believe in me.”
 



[1] the immortal Helper that arrives unexpectedly and in time to help people when in trouble
