Fiery lust is not diminished by indulging it,

but inevitably by leaving it ungratified.

As long as you are laying logs on the fire,

the fire will burn.

When you withhold the wood, the fire dies,

and God carries the water.

 

- Rumi

 

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

 

 

Version by Camille and Kabir Helminski

" Rumi: Daylight "

Threshold Books, 1994
