There comes a time when nothing is meaningful
- except surrendering to Love
- except surrendering to Love
Lightning from here strikes there.
When you begin to love God,
God is loving you.
A clapping sound
does not come from one hand.

The inspiration you seek is already within you. Be silent and listen.
Everything you see has its roots in the unseen world.
Do you think I know what I’m doing? That for one breath or half-breath I belong to myself? As much as a pen knows what it’s writing, or the ball can guess where it’s going next.
The intellectual is always showing off,
the lover is always getting lost.
The intellectual runs away,
afraid of drowning;
the whole business of love
is to drown in the sea.

This place is a dream. Only a sleeper considers it real. Then death comes like dawn, and you wake up laughing at what you thought was your grief.
There are mean people who see only meanness reflected in you, but they are wrong. You are pure soul, and made of the ground.
Humble living does not diminish. It fills.
Going back to a simpler self gives wisdom.
Going back to a simpler self gives wisdom.
Enter the ruins of your heart, and learn the meaning of humility.
You have become my greater self;
how can smallness limit me?
You’ve taken on my being,
how shall I not take on Yours?
Forever, You have claimed me
that forever I may know You’re mine.

There is a thread from the heart to the lips
where the secret of life is woven.
Words tear the thread
but in silence
the secrets
speak.

All souls are one. All existence is but the reflection of the Beloved.
To find the Beloved, you must become the Beloved.
Lose yourself.
Lose yourself.
Escape from this earthly form.
For this body is a chain and you are its prisoner.

A Great Silence overcomes me, and I wonder why I ever thought to use language.
You are not just a drop in the ocean. You are the mighty ocean in the drop.
