Lesson 109

I looked around, and saw in all Heaven's Spaces: One!

Excerpt

I looked around, and saw in all Heaven's Spaces: One! In Ocean's rippling Waves and billowy Races: One! I looked into the Heart, and saw a Sea, wide Worlds All full of Dreams, and in all Dreaming Faces: One! Thou art the First, the Last, the Outer, Inner, Whole: Thy Light breaks through in all Earth's Hues and Graces: One!

✨ To meditate on today

According to Rûmî, the one who looks with the heart sees the One everywhere: in the sky, in the waves, in the depths of the heart, for God is the First and the Last, and His light shines through all the beauties of the earth. Today, at three moments, before the sky, water or a face, say inwardly "One" and let that word gather your heart in peace.
