the spirit goes into ascension;
when the gate of the prison is broken,
the soul reaches the Beloved.
The heart has rent the curtain of darkness
and winged up to the sky;
the heart, being of the angels,
has again arrived.
Wash your hands and your mouth,
neither eat nor speak;
seek that speech and that morsel
which has come to the silent ones.
neither eat nor speak;
seek that speech and that morsel
which has come to the silent ones.
-- From Rumi's Ghazal No. 892 from the Divan-e Shams-e Tabrizi
Stay strong, stay true, and insha'Allah we will find ourselves.
