Understanding Distributed Systems 2nd by Roberto Vitillo

Description:

‘Baba Sahiba’ belong to those category of Master pieces which have no fixed boundaries and visible dimensions, You won’t be able to categorize the book in fixed genre, You cannot say that this book belongs to that particular topic. In begining you will think that the book is about Ashfaq Ahmed’s travelling to Rome (Italy), then you will start thinking, now book is going towards spirituality, then you will think that in actual, book is about the teacher’s life in Rome and their discussions, then book will lead you to the conversation between two writers, two writers away from their homeland, the book will also let you touch the parts of sufism then after sometime it will start exploring the relationship between science and religion, you will then find yourself in between a valley of short essays on different topics,then something else, then something else. It is a compilation of multi-dimensional fictionalized life experiences of Ashfaq Ahmed Sahab.

The most interesting thing about the book is:
It is not compiled & published by Ashfaq Ahmed himself but by his wife, Bano Qudsiya complied his writings and published the book after his death.

According to Bano Qudsiya, Ashfaq Ahmed was desperate all his life about the purpose of human life, what is the reason of our existence here, in this world and what do we want from ourselves. So, in ‘Baba Sahiba’ you will find his unending questions from life and existence and how he answered them as per his own perspective towards life.

“اپنے ساتھیوں کو کبھی اپنے علم سے خوفزدہ مت کرو۔”
― Ashfaq Ahmed, Baba Sahiba / بابا صاحبا
“لوگ دوسرے لوگوں کو اتنی تکلیف کیوں دیتے ہیں؟”
” ذرا ایک منٹ ٹھہر کر اس مسلے پر غور کریں. وہ کون سے لوگ ہوتے ہیں جو دوسروں کو آزار نہیں دیتے؟
وہ وہی لوگ ہوتے ہیں جو اپنے آپ کو دکھ نہیں دیتے. ان کے اندر دکھ کا اور آزار کا لاوا اتنا شدید نہی…ں ہوتا کہ وہ ابل کر دوسروں پر گرنے لگے.
چناچہ نتیجہ یہ نکلا کہ دوسروں کو حفاظت میں رکھنے کے لئے خود کو حفاظت میں رکھنا بہت ضروری ہے….
اصل میں “خود کریمی” ہی “مخلوق کریمی” ہے. چونکہ اس کا منبع ایک ہی ہے اس لئے یہ سبھی کو ایک سا سیراب کرتی ہے-
اور خود کریمی کا اجرا اس طرح ہوتا ہے کہ سچ کو اندر آنے دیا جائے اور اپنے زخموں کی مرہم پٹی کرنے دی جائے تاکہ اپنا اندر صحتمند ہو جائے.”
― Ashfaq Ahmed, Baba Sahiba / بابا صاحبا
