I heard the man wrote a book, called Sowing the Mustard Seed. Having a very low opinion of the man, I have never bothered to read the book. Considering his Balokole background, it is fair to say that he derived his title from the biblical Mustard Seed story. And one would surmise that he was making reference to his humble peasant-pastoral beginning and starting a guerilla out-fit that culminated into his owing a country. Here is the biblical quote: Mark 4: 30-32 “With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable will we use for it? It is like a mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade.” The questions: Who or what is the large tree? : Is the large tree protecting all the birds or only select birds? Has the mustard seed grown into a newfangled thorny bush?
