INNER AWAKENING

A POEM FROM RUMI THAT CAPTURES THE INNER AWAKENING EXPERIENCE

How does a part of the world leave the world?
how can wetness leave water 
don't try to put out a fire by throwing on more fire !
don't wash a wound with blood

no matter how fast you run your shadow more than keeps up !
sometimes its in front
only full overhead sun diminishes your shadow
but that Shadow has been serving you

what hurts you blesses you
darkness is your candle
your boundaries are your quest
