Ruminating with Rumi
Wetness does not leave water. You do not leave I AM. You are that which I AM. There is no separation. Do not try to drown yourself. You cannot return in body. The body is a thought of separation. Remove the thought. The body will be set free. To know this is to light a candle in darkness. In body, you cast a shadow on the wall. The wall is your worldly boundary. You have no shadow without the body, only the light. Shine your light in the world without the boundaries of separation. Cast your light freely upon the whole of the all as that which I AM.
There is movement all about you. Spirits sway in time to the music that you play. What do you give them to hear? There is a fountain in you that gives forth sweetwater. It gurgles and flows. Give freely to those who thirst. Shine your light over them as they come to rest in your shade. Play them a sweet song of love and joy. Let them dance and drink in your presence. There is no other than the one. You are that which I AM.
