words of wisdom: Overcome the five-headed Cobra of the senses

O man, overcome the five-headed
Cobra of the senses
Pull out its poisonous fangs
And blowing the melody
Of la ilaha illallahu
Make that snake of the senses dance.

Muhaiyaddeen, M.R. Bawa. "The Golden Words of a Sufi Sheikh." Philadelphia:Fellowship Press, 1981,2006
