Rumi

Check this Poet/mystic/sufi and his fantastically beautiful material.

Favorite samples (Note:each paragraph is a seperate poem):

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

There is a way between voice and presence
where information flows.
In disciplined silence it opens.
With wandering talk it closes.

Dance, as though no one is watching,
Love, as though you've never been hurt before,
Sing, as though no one can hear you,
Work, as though you don't need the money,
Live, as though heaven is on earth.

I have lived on the lip
of insanity, wanting to know reasons,
knocking on a door. It opens.
I've been knocking from the inside!

Nibble at Me

Nibble at me.
Don't gulp me down.
How often is it you have a guest in your house
who can fix everything?
