✨ To meditate on today

According to Rûmî in the Masnavi, the divine voice makes itself heard as an inner voice, which only the eye and ear of the heart can perceive, where reason and the senses remain deaf. Today, give yourself three moments of silence, without screens or noise, and listen to what your inner voice whispers to you that is good and peaceful.
