When you eventually see through the veils to how things really are, you will keep saying again and again, this is certainly not like we thought it was.

There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.

Feel the delight of walking in the noisy street and being the noise.

And patience flees my heart, And reason flees my mind. Oh, how drunk can I get to be, Without your love's security?

God (in His mercy) accepts false coin.

The core of the seen and unseen universe smiles, but remember smiles come best from those who weep. Lightning, then the rain-laughter.

Neither this body am I, nor soul, Nor these fleeting images passing by, Nor concepts and thoughts, mental images, Nor yet sentiments and the psyche's labyrinth. Who then am I? A consciousness without origin, Not born in time, nor begotten here below. I am that which was, is and ever shall be, A jewel in the crown of the Divine Self, A star in the firmament of the luminous One.
