A Brother once told Al Habīb 'Alī al-Jifrī privately: "I feel disconnected."Al Habīb: "That is a sign of connection because a disconnected person never feels."Brother: "What shall I do?"Al Habīb: "Do you keep up your litanies (awrad)?"Brother: "Yes"Al Habīb: "A sign of drinking externally only is to feel satiated & a sign of drinking internally is continuing to feel thirsty..so you will continue to feel thirsty, thus, drink more!
