Like the ocean is your god-self;
It remains for ever undefiled.
And like the ether it lifts but the winged.
Even like the sun is your god-self;
It knows not the ways of the mole nor seeks it the holes of
the serpent. But your god-self dwells not alone in your being. 1/2
🖋️Kahlil Gibran

Clear in word,
Gracious in awareness,
Courageous in thought,
Generous in love.

In today's Rumi reading, I got to The Guest House.
This famous poem deserves a full reading. The online images are all from Coleman Bark's translation, The Essential Rumi, which is what I read. Barks made Rumi accessible for us westerners and we have been enriched ever since. 😁

One person sees a minaret,
but not the bird perched there.
A second person sees the bird,
but not the hair it carries.
A third sees minaret, bird, and hair.
Until you can see the thread of the hair,
the knot of awareness will not be loosened.
🖋️ Rumi, extract: "New Moon, Hillal"
