Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi

“You that change the dull field,
who give conversation to damaged ears,
make dying alive, award guardianship
to the wandering mind,
you who erase the five senses at night,
who give eyes allure and a blood clot wisdom,
who give the lover heroic strength,
you who hear what Sanai said,
Lose your life, if you seek eternity.

The master who teaches us
is absolute light, not this visibility.”

Jalaluddin Rumi, Bridge to the Soul: Journeys Into the Music and Silence of the Heart
