🌾 Roots in Earth, Eyes on Eternity — Farid Speaks

In an age where everyone wants to rise, Baba Farid taught us how to stay rooted. To him, spirituality was not about escaping the world but anchoring so deeply into it that the divine could grow through you. He said, “Let your feet be buried in humility, and your gaze rest on the horizon of the Infinite.”

This simple paradox—groundedness and transcendence—holds the essence of Baba Farid’s wisdom. It reminds us that one cannot truly see eternity unless one has first touched the soil with reverence.

In our hyper-digital, hyper-distracted world, we mistake floating for freedom. We confuse speed for progress, detachment for peace. Baba Farid, in his quiet mystic simplicity, dismantled this illusion. He believed that every human must cultivate earth within before they can understand heaven above.
