I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.
*Hafiz
In every love sought, I, not knowing, sought only Love. And every disappointment in the futile search led me Home to this Truth, that the One seeking has always been, and long before I came here, both the One seeking and the One sought.
*Arem Nahariim-Samadhi

I cannot seek You - they say - except where You have already been found. I cannot know You - I am told - except where You have already been known. I choose not to walk, however, the path left from others, but a way still unfolding. I pray neither to see the destination nor the way - Love being my only guide and truth. I seek You not in those places, nor to know You as then. I come to Your Garden, Now, to eat the fruit of Quiet and to rest in the shade of Nothing. Who are You? and Who am I? I in You, my Love, You in me, One seeing my own Self, we see again as for the first time.
