Ruminating with Rumi
Do not say. Listen. You have no words that say. Do nothing. You cannot improve upon the way of the path. Do not seek in the world. Enter the room within. Herein lies twia. Sit in the still silence and remember your true nature. It will come to you without effort. It will return to you the wisdom and joy of your true nature. It will offer the light of knowledge to find your way in the world. You will know the whole of the all.
Somewhere between this and that lies the eternal moment of oneness where yin and yang are coiled in their circle of unity without light and darkness, where your left hand does what your right hand is doing, where giving and receiving are the same. Herein lies the whole of the all.
In the whole of the all, this and that become interchangeable. That is the paradox of oneness, that beauty becomes ugliness and that which is ugly glorifies the heavens. In the whole of the all, you cannot tell one from the other, for there is only one, not two. And without two, there is no one. There is only consciousness, the emptiness that is nowhere. Consciousness in existence is the whole of the all.
