Comparison of Elders

Do not indulge in comparison. What is this my Shaikh, my monastery (khanqah), my tack? Some Shaikhs are charismatic (jamali) some awesome(jalali). Some have great forbearance some not. Avoid the comparison. He is like this and he is like that, we say. And how are we? Remember one who indulges in comparison his decline has began.
