Creature of the Light #13



Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I'll meet you there.


When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase each other
doesn't make any sense.


Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi.

I love this - a Mr. Centipede/Grasshopper and words that I'm writing down to keep.

Oh, the vast vision of Mr. Rumi. I like how people studied in past centuries. Another knowledge could be learnt and taught.
His notion that inner peace is the outcome of honourably detaching of morality and judgement, is truly attractive, much could be built over it.
Thanks for letting me know. He was a great writer.
