Wisdom

A journey without a guide is dangerous,

Translated from Uzbek · Original text

A journey without a guide is dangerous,A body without a head can't live — it perishes.This is word handed down from the old books:The wise one understands a teacher's worth.One who says “I reached perfection without a teacher”Is like one who says “I was born without a father.”One who comes to the teacher with his head bowedWill smile like the sun in the sky of bliss.Akrom MALIK
