The Soul of Truth (10/16/16)
Reading Rumi
Absence Is the Real Treasure (10/9/16)
Absence is Essence; everything else is an attribute.
Absence is health; everything else is an illness.
This world is a big headache, a grand illusion.
Absence is the real treasure.

“And We Will Go That Way” (10/2/16)
Rise, O lovers. Let us all ascend to the sky.
We have seen this earth. Let us see the other one.
No, no. Both gardens are beautiful and nice.
Let us give up both of them and go to the Gardener.
Yet, Love Lasts Forever (9/25/16)
Life is short. Breaths are numbered. Yet, Love lasts forever.
We stretched our legs and laid down under the shade of the heart,
Watching the plain of Love extending in front of us.
Who cares if there are hundreds of days of resurrection on that plain?

Water Is Never Afraid of the Fire (9/18/16)

Is laughing at himself as well as the world.
They talk about union and separation.
But, one cannot be united until he is separated.

The One… (8/28/16)
I am a slave and servant of the One who takes me to His soul,
The One who makes my garden and meadow green.
He shows me to the world and makes me famous in one moment,
Then changes me to one without name or fame in the next.

O Heart, What Are You Waiting For? (8/21/16)
Beloved, look at us. You are the soul of the eye’s sight.
How can I tell you that you took our heart?
You are our heart. Continue reading “O Heart, What Are You Waiting For? (8/21/16)”
A Lover’s Heart (8/14/16)
Sorrow that wouldn’t dare come close to the hearts of lovers
Revolves around cold, frozen people.
There is such a giant sea inside a lover’s heart
That its waves make the sky turn around.
