Oh Soul! You worry too much. Your arms are heavy with treasures of all kinds.
When someone beats a rug, the blows are not against the rug, but against the dust in it.
Then outwardly you are the small universe! Then inwardly you are the great universe.
Keep your intelligence white hot and your grief glistening“ so your life will stay fresh.
The intellectual quest, though fine as pearl or coral, is not the spiritual search. That spiritual search is on another level. Spiritual wine is a different substance.
Don't see yourself as a body of clay; See yourself as a mirror reflecting the divine beauty.
