Who's Barphlinker?

People that books made host becomes the cosmos
- Barphlinker

I don't know what it means either. But whatever Asian company produced my new desk lamp saw fit to write this in gold letters across the base of it. Is it some sort of Confucian, "sound of one hand clapping" puzzle? A secret Al Qaeda code?

What makes it all the more unusual is that all the words are spelled correctly.

I try rearranging the words in my spare time, and get even more bizaare combinations.

And who is Barphlinker?
