Be Lost in the Call - Rumi

 

Lord, said David, since you do not need us,

why did you create these two worlds?

Reality replied: O prisoner of time,

I was a secret treasure of kindness and generosity,

and I wished this treasure to be known,

so I created a mirror: its shining face, the heart;

its darkened back, the world;

The back would please you if you've never seen the face.

Has anyone ever produced a mirror out of mud and straw?

Yet clean away the mud and straw,

and a mirror might be revealed.

Until the juice ferments a while in the cask,

it isn't wine. If you wish your heart to be bright,

you must do a little work.

My King addressed the soul of my flesh:

You return just as you left.

Where are the traces of my gifts?

We know that alchemy transforms copper into gold.

This Sun doesn't want a crown or robe from God's grace.

He is a hat to a hundred bald men,

a covering for ten who were naked.

Jesus sat humbly on the back of an ass, my child!

How could a zephyr ride an ass?

Spirit, find your way, in seeking lowness like a stream.

Reason, tread the path of selflessness into eternity.

Remember God so much that you are forgotten.

Let the caller and the called disappear;

be lost in the Call.

 

~Rumi and Helminski

 

 

Love,

 

Mazie

Dearest Mazieji:

Thank you so much, dear Mazie. I was just thinking this morning that I

would like to create a site with just Rumi poems and photos to go with

them. Tripod and some other websites host free sites for you and will

allow you to have more than one free site if i understand their promo

correctly. (20mb)

Down side is that you have to put up with the banner ads..

upside is that you can ignore them :- )

Also, tripod has easy online software to create your site online...

mmmmm...i just read Rumi again...beautiful....

Hugs and kisses for you, Beloved.

Love,

Joyce
