The Prophet
In a distant, timeless place, a mysterious prophet
walks the sands. At the moment of his departure, he
wishes to offer the people gifts but possesses nothing.
The people gather round, each asks a question of the
heart, and the man's wisdom is his gift. It is Gibran's
gift to us, as well, for Gibran's prophet is rivaled in
his wisdom only by the founders of the world's great
religions. On the most basic topics--marriage, children,
friendship, work, pleasure--his words have a power and
lucidity that in another era would surely have provoked
the description "divinely inspired." Free of
dogma, free of power structures and metaphysics, consider
these poetic, moving aphorisms a 20th-century supplement
to all sacred traditions--as millions of other readers
already have.
