Better than nothing. "Splash" vs "It's better to be alone than with just anyone": which strategy is better? The one who has realized the Creator in himself New life and old life are two different
Life is a desert, we wander naked through it.
Mortal, full of pride, you are simply ridiculous!
The dates of the life of a person who died almost a thousand years ago look so unusual! It's amazing how historians are generally able to tell something about a person who lived and worked so long ago?!
Full name Omar Khayyam, which will be discussed today - Giyas ad-Din Abu-l-Fath Omar ibn Ibrahim Khayyam Nishapuri.
- Ghiyath ad-Din– “Shoulder of Faith”, means knowledge of the Koran.
- Abu-l-Fath father is a conqueror.
- Omar ibn Ibrahim- Omar, son of Ibrahim.
- Khayyam- a tent-keeper, Omar's father's profession, from the word "hayma" - a tent, the old Russian "khamovnik" comes from the same word, i.e. textile worker.
- Nishapuri – hometown Omar Khayyam.
Thus, Khayyam's father was called Ibrahim and he came from a family of artisans. It can be assumed that this man had sufficient funds and did not spare them to give his son an education corresponding to his brilliant abilities.
Omar Khayyam was not only a poet, but also an outstanding scientist of the past: a philosopher, mathematician, astronomer. But for many hundreds of years after his death Khayyam was forgotten. Our contemporaries were lucky: Khayyam's works, after many years of oblivion, again attracted attention; in the 19th century, the poet Edward Fitzgerald translated Khayyam's quatrains from Persian into English. Thus began the victorious march of the poetry of Omar Khayyam around the world.
We are sure that at least once, but each of you has heard or even put into practice one of the most famous sayings:
To live life wisely, you need to know a lot,
Two important rules remember to start:
You'd rather starve than eat anything
And it's better to be alone than with just anyone.
At the time of the death of the Titanic, in addition to treasures worth about 13 million pounds sterling, on board was the priceless manuscript of Omar Khayyam's "Rubaiyat". It’s good that by that time the poems had at least been translated!
Omar Khayyam has remained for centuries thanks to the quatrains that glorified him about love and friendship, wine and its consumption, about the search for the meaning of life and much more.
We invite you to touch the Rubaiyat treasury with us.
1. About the fact that you need to rely only on your own strength and not spend more than you can afford.
The fact that God once measured us, friends,
You can't increase it and you can't decrease it.
Trying to make the most of the cash
Don’t worry about someone else’s, don’t ask for a loan.
2. Modesty adorns life!
If you have a nook for housing -
In our mean time - and a piece of bread,
If you are not a servant to anyone, not a master -
You are happy and truly high in spirit.
3. Inspiring life example.
We feast over the stream - this is how you should live!
Adversity is unbearable - this is how you should live!
Since ten days have been measured out to us, like roses,
We laugh and sing - this is the way to live!
4. Everything will pass, the bad will also someday come to an end!
What is at random in life, will someday pass;
And joy, like anger, someday will pass.
Thank you Allah that the world is fickle
And no matter what happens - someday it will pass.
5. Do good and think positive!
Let fate give you at least five centuries,
Not longevity will glorify, but deeds. Be wise!
So that the rumor does not curse you,
Become good fairy tale and not a fiend of evil.
6. The whole world is in you alone!
In my dreams I circled the universe
The tablet, and heaven, and hell sought out secretly.
I believed the words of the Teacher only later:
"The tablet, and heaven, and hell - look in yourself."
7. Nothing human was alien to Khayyam.
I'll take bread, I'll take poetry sofa,
For reinforcement of strength - a cheerful jug of wine.
When I sit in the ruins, drunk with love,
Let the Sultan envy you and me!
8. Scarlett O'Hara is a worthy student of Omar Khayyam!
Do not be afraid, friend, today's adversity!
Rest assured, time will erase them.
There is a minute, give it to fun,
And what comes next, let it come!
Fortune telling on "Rubai"
Just as we sometimes get used to guessing on volumes of poems by our favorite poets, one can also guess on the book “Rubai”. Think about what worries you the most now and boldly open e-pages wise book. Let's see if you get an answer to your question! Click on the picture:
On the one hand, I always say that it is worth building a relationship only with a person with whom you are comfortable. If in a relationship you have to endure, educate, bend, manipulate - all this suggests that these relationships are toxic, and their participants are deeply neurotic people. But on the other hand, there is also the other side of the coin, when all the guys are not good enough for a girl and she breaks off relationships over and over again at the very beginning, because she is sure that she will find someone better. Let's see what's the matter here.
Of course, everyone wants not to drink, not smoke, and always give flowers, to be decent, wealthy, promising, charming, with a sense of humor, caring, courageous ... And who would argue, it's better to be healthy and rich than poor and sick. But it's all "from the head." This is a calculation.
The problem is that no one has ever loved anyone for a particular merit. No one will tell you, "I love my husband because he doesn't drink or smoke." Or: “I fell in love with Vasya when I found out what his salary is.” Dignity can be respected, admired, but not loved.
Nevertheless, many girls prefer to build relationships on the basis of calculation, because they are disappointed in love. Well, they did not meet their love. And they decided that there is no love. Because it's already been years, but Herman is still gone. And they say: "I'll meet a good guy, and we'll be happy." But if you talk heart to heart with such a girl, it turns out that there was love in her life. Well, it does not happen that in 25-30 years a person has never been in love. Something just went wrong: he left her, he didn’t want to get married, he treated her badly, something else. It is especially traumatic if there were several such stories. Such a painful attitude is formed: love is suffering, I don’t want to suffer, which means I don’t need love.
Popular
Normal, healthy love, so to speak, will become possible as soon as the girl realizes her problem: for some reason, she chooses the wrong guys over and over again. She is not confident in herself, she grew up in a toxic family, she has complexes - there can be a million reasons. But you have to deal with yourself. A self-confident girl, aware of her needs, respecting her own and other people's boundaries, will definitely attract a person with a similar picture of the world, and they will certainly fall in love with each other. This is how life works: like attracts like. And if aggressors are “nailed” to you over and over again, it means that you need them for some reason, you attract them. Maybe you had an aggressive father, maybe he beat your mother, and this painful family model took root in the subconscious. If you come across indifferent and incapable of empathy dorks, maybe in your childhood love was replaced by provision: well-fed, healthy, there are toys - goodbye, what else do you need. Having dealt with this (perhaps on her own, perhaps with the help of a psychologist), the girl will change her life and find that there are a lot of cool guys around with whom you can build a healthy relationship. And you don’t have to go over endlessly, or worry that you will be left alone.
That is, the very problem of “sneaking through” or “marrying the first person you meet” will disappear as soon as “marriage of convenience is better than love” and “I am obliged to marry at any cost and as soon as possible” are removed from my head.
I will say more: marriages of convenience in the vast majority are doomed to disintegration, if this is not a fictitious marriage by agreement of both parties. In another case, it will be physically unpleasant for one of the partners to share a bed with an unloved person, his voice and smell will irritate him, quarrels will inevitably start, and you don’t want to put up either ... Therefore, first of all, you need to “fix” your ability to love and be loved, and secondly, stop considering all men as potential husbands, start just living.
Now about the "picky". This one is good for everyone, but earns little. And that one over there is rich, but the woman changes like gloves. And this one seems to be faithful and devoted, but lives with his mother. Looking for more. What is behind this? Fear. Fear of relationships as such. Because there is no ideal. This is a collective image with which you fence yourself off from real life. It arises because people are not sure that they themselves are able to build normal relationships with a living person.
How to draw a line between pathology and normality? Everything is simple. Your feelings must match your thoughts. As soon as it happened - bingo, you hit the top ten. That is, in a relationship, you should be comfortable on all levels, from emotional to physical and rational. When you are drawn to a person, but you are aware that he objectively suits you. That it’s not just “I can’t live without him”, but “I want to live with this serious, reliable, decent and responsible man, to whom I am very attracted.”
Will you meet him? If you carefully read the fifth paragraph - be sure.
We all get what we deserve in love. And our partner is always our reflection. How Little Raccoon was afraid of the one who sits in the pond. So don't take the stick. And smile.

It is not uncommon for an "ideal woman" to play the role of a wife or a permanent partner, while a man takes his soul with his mistress, who does not in any way draw on the role of a potential wife and mother, but, on the other hand, gives him a sharpness of sensations with her direct behavior ...
I, the other day, had to expose my vest to a man...
The man I was once in love with, but he chose another.
I don’t know what you thought, but this person invited me to a conversation in order to pour out his soul to at least someone.
We had not seen each other for more than ten years, and in early August I met my guests at the airport and accidentally met him.
After exchanging phone numbers, we agreed to call each other.
And here we are sitting with him in the park ...
It’s not hot and I would love to go to a nearby cafe, but he keeps talking ... talking ... But I don’t interrupt - I’m afraid that if I interrupt him, then this monologue will never continue. You have to let the person speak.
Then a long time ago, he married a girl from our company.
She was from Leningrad, unlike us, who live in dorms and "came in large numbers" from different parts of the USSR.
She differed from us in her manners, and noble upbringing, and some kind of article that was not in us.
Our youth was "poor", but cheerful and active. We with backpacks and tents climbed all over the Leningrad region.
Even in these campaigns, our Leningrad was somehow special, with some dignity, or something, and our boy "hung" on it specifically.
Soon, we took a walk at their wedding, and then, gradually, our paths diverged ...
And here, in a nutshell, is his revelation.
The children have grown up.
It cannot be said that I was an ideal father ... Yes, and I was a good husband for only a couple of years ...
You will not believe - tired of her decency in everything! I'm tired of walking along the line ...
At first I liked that she dressed me with taste, introduced me to theaters, various exhibitions, but suddenly I realized: it's sickening! Not mine!
Started walking. At first, on the sly, hiding, and over time - I no longer cared whether she knew about it or not.
She knew. At first she tried to call me to conscience, she threw tantrums, but in vain - I was ready for a divorce, which she was terribly afraid of.
So they existed on the same territory until I met the Bitch - the complete opposite of my wife. FULL!!!
The bitch swore in such a selective obscenity as I had never heard before; dressed like a punk; what are the rules of good manners - I have never even heard; manners ... What manners are there !!! She could put her hand in my fly on the street ... And in sex she had no equal - a virtuoso with a capital letter!
Baldel at first - the roof was blown off specifically.
He rented an apartment for her and moved in with her. I went home only to change my clothes and see the children.
It lasted for about six months, I guess. Then Bitch said that she was tired of living in a rented apartment and began to blow my mind that I should take a mortgage and buy an apartment.
And… I took it!!! Can you imagine?! I bought a “kopeck piece”, issued it for her and felt, at the same time, such a benefactor! Proud of what you did!
I wasn't proud for long... I had to work harder - the loan had to be repaid...
I come one day from work ahead of time, and my Bitch is floundering in the bathroom with some kind of goat.
You should have seen me!!! I grabbed this goat (almost tore off his "tomatoes" **) and threw him naked onto the stairs. And he slashed his Bitch with a belt so that she was like a zebra.
Probably would have killed if the neighbors had not called the police - her goat, naked, called into some apartment.
The bitch cried, swore that this would not happen again, and then ...
Then she told me: - If so - get out! My apartment. You are NOBODY here!
It was possible, of course, to fight for an apartment, to prove that it was I who bought it, but ... What's done is done. You know me - I will not be trifles.
Returned to his wife. We live ... I can’t get close to her - so ... the mechanics are the same ...
However, she is happy, she takes care of me as if I were an invalid; tries to guess and fulfill any of my desires; doesn't go over anything...
I guess I should be ashamed in front of her for what I did, but...
Not ashamed! Not at all...
Do you think I'm an idiot?
I am an idiot ... However, NOT SHAME - and that's it!
Children - also not too happy with me, they understand everything - they have grown up.
He was silent for a while, looking at one point somewhere in the distance ...
I liked you then, in your youth, but I could not imagine you as my wife ... Sorry! ..
Well, what kind of wife are you? You, like a horse with eggs **, rushed through the forest, scorched on kayaks ... Yes ....
I was a fool... He smiled sadly: - Maybe it's not too late?
LIFE is a strange thing ... Once upon a time, I would have choked with delight upon hearing such words, but now ...
How can one not recall the famous aphorism?
“In order to live life wisely, you need to know a lot.
Two important rules to remember to get started:
Well, it's better to starve than to eat anything;
To be better alone than with just anyone." (c) *
* Omar Khayyam.

Oh, Anyuta! This is not a story, but a bomb! A poisonous bomb that blows up all the norms of morality ... But there are at least a dime a dozen such men now. I'm not a feminist, as you might think, but ... I would kill such men. A normal, caring woman did not like him. Before children - no responsibility! thoughts only about how to live in chocolate. He gave everything to the Bitch, falling in love with her for her rudeness and impudence - some kind of masochism, not love. Alas, your hero is not alone in life. next to him are myriads of the same spoiled, self-centered. Pechorin is no match for them. Bitter to read, but this bitter pill cures illusions. Thank you, Anna! Sincerely,
I agree with you, Ella - Pechorin is resting (as it is fashionable to put it now).
After this monologue, for a long time I did not leave the feeling of disgust and the feeling that I had stepped on a pile of shit.
However ... I remember the old time: how I was upset by his indifference to me, how I envied his chosen one ..! And, after all, even then he was already "with a smell", if you remember everything well.
Love is evil..:))
Thank you very much! Sincerely -

All that we see is only one appearance.
Far from the surface of the world to the bottom.
Consider the unimportant obvious in the world,
For the secret essence of things is not visible.
Translation by German Plisetsky
I have made knowledge my trade,
I am familiar with the higher truth and the baser evil.
I untangled all the tight knots in the world,
Except death tied in a dead knot.
Translation by German Plisetsky
One is always shameful work - to exalt oneself,
Are you so great and wise? - dare to ask yourself.
Let the eyes serve as an example - a huge seeing the world,
They do not grumble because they cannot see themselves.
Translation by B. Golubev
Though the sage is not a miser and does not accumulate good,
Bad in the world and the wise without silver.
Under the fence, the violet droops from begging,
A rich rose is red and generous!
Translation by German Plisetsky
Someone wise suggested to me who dozed off:
“Wake up! You won't be happy in a dream.
Give up this occupation, like death,
After death, Khayyam, you will sleep completely!

Nobility through suffering, friend, is born,
To become a pearl - is every drop given?
You can lose everything, save only your soul, -
The cup will be filled again, it would be wine.
Translation by Gleb Semenov
He who from youth believes in his own mind,
He became dry and gloomy in pursuit of truth.
Claiming from childhood to the knowledge of life,
Not becoming a grape, it turned into a raisin.
Translation by German Plisetsky
How long will you please all the cattle?
Only a fly for grub can give his soul!
Feed on the blood of the heart, but be independent.
It is better to swallow tears than to gnaw on leftovers.
Translation by Gleb Semyonov
You say this life - one moment.
Appreciate it, draw inspiration from it.
As you spend it, so it will pass,
Don't forget: she is your creation.
Translation by K. Arseneva and Ts. Banu
From feigned love - there is no satisfaction,
No matter how rotten shines, there is no combustion.
Day and night there is no rest for the lover,
For months there is no moment of oblivion!
Translation by Gleb Semenov
What for common happiness to suffer to no avail -
It is better to give happiness to someone close.
It is better to tie a friend to yourself with kindness,
How to free humanity from the fetters.
Translation by German Plisetsky
To live life wisely, you need to know a lot,
Two important rules to remember to get started:
You'd rather starve than eat anything
And it's better to be alone than with just anyone.
Translation by Osip Rumer
Don't let a scoundrel into secrets - hide them,
And keep secrets from the fool - hide them,
Look at yourself among the people passing by,
Keep silent about hopes to the end - hide them!
Translation by N. Tenigina
I know this kind of pompous asses:
Empty like a drum, but how many loud words!
They are slaves of names. Make up a name for yourself
And any of them is ready to crawl before you.
Translation by Osip Rumer
Only the essence, how worthy of men, say
Only answering - the words of the lord - speak.
There are two ears, and one language is given not by chance -
Listen twice and only once - speak!
Translation by N. Tenigina
Wine is forbidden, but there are four "buts":
It depends on who, with whom, when and in moderation, or drinks wine.
If these four conditions are met
All sane wine is allowed.
Translation by Osip Rumer
Not fit good people offend
It is not appropriate, like a predator in the desert, to growl.
It is not smart to boast of the obtained wealth,
It is not proper to honor oneself for the titles!
Translation by N. Tenigina
Changing rivers, countries, cities...
Other doors... New Years...
And we can't get away from ourselves,
And if you get away - only to nowhere.
Translation by I. Nalbandyan
Recognize the superiority of others, then - a husband,
If the master in his actions, then - the husband.
There is no honor in the humiliation of the one who is defeated,
Kind to those who have fallen in their misfortune, that means a husband!
Translation by N. Tenigina
If a mill, a bathhouse, a luxurious palace
Receives as a gift a fool and a scoundrel,
And the worthy goes into bondage because of bread -
I don't care about your justice, creator!
Translation by German Plisetsky
You, the Almighty, in my opinion, are greedy and old.
You strike the slave with blow after blow.
Paradise is the reward of the sinless for their obedience.
Would give me something not as a reward, but as a gift!
Translation by German Plisetsky
It is better to drink and caress cheerful beauties,
Than to look for salvation in fasting and prayers.
If a place in hell is for lovers and drunkards,
Then who will you order to admit to paradise?
Translation by German Plisetsky
Love is a fatal misfortune, but the misfortune is by the will of Allah.
Why do you condemn what is always - by the will of Allah.
A series of evil and good arose - by the will of Allah.
Why do we need the thunders and flames of the Judgment - by the will of Allah?
Translation by Vladimir Derzhavin
You are an atheist in soul with Scripture in your hand,
Though memorized letters in each line.
To no avail you hit the ground with your head,
Better hit the ground with everything that's in your head!
Translation by Alexander Shcherbakov
If I had power over this evil sky,
I'd crush it and replace it with another
So that there are no barriers to noble aspirations
And a person could live without longing.
Translation by German Plisetsky
No one has seen either paradise or hell;
Has anyone returned from there to our perishable world?
But these ghosts are barren for us
And the source of fears and hopes is unchanged.
Translation by Osip Rumer
The one who presents the world to the lucky ones as a gift,
The rest of the blow strikes
Do not grieve that you had less fun than others,
Be glad that less than others suffered.
Translation by German Plisetsky
Since the truth is always out of hand
Do not try to understand the incomprehensible, friend!
Take the cup in your hands, stay ignorant
There is no point, believe me, in the study of science!
Translation by German Plisetsky
"Hell and heaven are in heaven," say the bigots.
I looked into myself, I was convinced of a lie:
Hell and heaven are not circles in the palace of the universe,
Hell and heaven are two halves of the soul.
Be careful - the fate of the villain is near!
The sword of time is sharp, don't be a skygazer!
When fate puts halva in your mouth,
Beware, don't eat... Sugar is mixed with poison in it.
Translation by German Plisetsky
