Essence of the One
Love is my only companion.
It is my beginning,
my existence,
and my end.
My soul calls to me from within:
Oh negligent
on the Path of Love,
rescue me!
~ Jalal id-din Rumi
translated by Iraj Anvar & Anne Twitty, Say Nothing
If it seems like the world is divided,
and you might be stuck alone in the middle,
remember your constant companion,
the one who never leaves you,
the beginning, and there is no beginning,
the end, and there is no end,
all of existence, and the nothing.
Everything is in the hands of the Maker.
Nothing exists except as a reflection of the One.
The light of your soul still burns brightly.
Remember the truth of your existence.
Answer the call from within.
Rescue yourself from yourself,
and return now, as you are,
to the Essence of The One.
