Astonishing Light

I wish I could show you when you are lonely

or in darkness ,

the astonishing light of your own being.

काश मैं तुम्हें दिखा पाता जब तुम अकेले होते हो

या अँधेरे में,

अपने स्वयं के होने का आश्चर्यजनक प्रकाश।

Dear ones

We don’t need sugar, flour or rice or anything else.

We just want to see our dear ones .

Great favour

Love sometimes wants to do us a great favour:

hold us upside down

and

shake all the nonsense out.

Truth

The Truth has shared so much of Itself
With me ,
That I can no longer call myself
A man, a woman, an angel,
Or even pure
Soul.

Distilled Desires

When all your desires are distilled
You will cast just two votes:
To love more, And be happy.

Soul waking up!

What is laughter? What is laughter?
It is God waking up! O it is God waking up!
It is the sun poking its sweet head out
From behind a cloud

You have been carrying too long,
Veiling your eyes and heart.
It is Light breaking ground for a great Structure
That is your Real body- called Truth.

It is happiness applauding itself and then taking flight
To embrace everyone and everything in this world.
Laughter is the polestar
Held in the sky by our Beloved,

Who eternally says,
“Yes, dear ones, come this way,
Come this way toward Me and Love!
Come with your tender mouths moving
And your beautiful tongues conducting songs
And with your movements – your magic movements
Of hands and feet and glands and cells – Dancing!
Know that to God’s Eye,
All movement is a Wondrous Language,

And Music – such exquisite, wild Music!”
O what is laughter, Hafiz?
What is this precious love and laughter
Budding in our hearts?
It is the glorious sound
Of a soul waking up!

Wit and Wisdom

I cannot tell you to befriend this, or drink that
Wit and wisdom display your own solutions.
