We have a strong premonition that one of these three Professors are of hakka origin/lineage judged from their surnames. If anyone can help is much appreciated. Like Maryam Lum Mei Ling story of my family tree, until now we still dont know her father one Dr.Lum and mum Dr.Rokiah Tawi belong to hokkien, cantonese or hakka big family. Her cousin Ruth Lum did write to us. Here are more tea cups for our thirsty travellers outside china:
This world is a watery shadow of Ocean love
that sea of light cannot be contained
in single human beings, so leave fragments
and be the Mountain..that people alway remember you
The love you must enter lives in the Saints
and Prophets. It is already the ocean, whereas
most loving still filters through countryside
enjoying the passage
As you become existence
you will distribute creation
lavishly blessing everybody
Wa ma arsalnaka illa rahmatulil-alamin..
(page 348 - Rumi -Coleman Barks 2004)

With such attachments,
do you expect to arrive anywhere
Be wide as air to learn a secret
Right now, you are equally portions
of clay, water,thick mud
Give up to grace of Allah, the ocean take care of each wave
Till it reaches the shore. You need help more than you know.
Say Bismillah on your old self
to find your real new name..
