Words of Rumi

Love has nothing to do with

the five senses and the six directions:

its goal is only to experience

the attraction exerted by the Beloved.

Afterwards, perhaps, permission

will come from God:

the secrets that ought to be told with be told

with an eloquence nearer to the understanding

that these subtle confusing allusions.

The secret is partner with none

but the knower of the secret:

in the skeptic's ear

the secret is no secret at all.

Mathnawi III, 1417-1424

Surrender to this Power

Sun and Sand, oil painting by Debra Clemente
Here I am, at the beach. The waves are calling, calling to me, calling my name, telling me their story. Listen, they say, listen, to what we say. Watch what we do. For as we do, so can you. We go with the flow. We roll with the punches. We may break. But we are not broken our strength remains, remains the same.

It is the energy which cycles through all and goes by one name. It is the Power of the Earth. It is the Power of the Heavens. It is the Force that keeps your feet planted. It is all the same, no division, no separation. Continual, dependable, forever It Is. Forever It Was. Forever It Shall Be. This Force is the Truth of Eternity.

Do you allow, allow as we, for this Force to flow through you? Do you allow It to break free destroying all perceived boundaries? You may see us as broken, you may believe that because you no longer can see, that the Power we are has dissipated, gone, wasted, died. But your eyes deceive you. You should not believe you. There is always more to the story than you can know from your perspective. The Force of the current continues beyond your sight. We disappear, but the Force within us, that gave life and power to us, cycles back into the Wholeness we have always been.

We surrender to this Power, this Holy Grace, and as we do we gain again the strength this Power Is. We are reborn. You shall see us again. In new form yeh, but the same. We keep coming back to you. Waving again and again to you who stand upon the shore, wondering what lies beyond. Just wading you are. You understand not the depth or breadth of this Ocean of Life you are one with.

We ask… will you join us? Will you submerge yourself, be willing to lose yourself to find Yourself?

All Good comes from God

Owe no man anything. Owe God everything. No matter whose hand delivers it, all good comes from God. All thanks be to God. Go with the flow. Pay what you owe. Thus, what is owed to you can flow unto. Do not be a clog in a drain. Do not act as sludge, for if you do, your bounty will not budge.
