Dear Yoga lovers,
:
From the Soul of Rumi
translation by Coleman Barks:
Thinking and the Heart's Mystical Way
A peaceful face twists with the poisonous nail of
thinking. A golden spade sinks into
a pile of dung.
Suppose you loosen an
intellectual
knot. The sack is empty. You've grown
old trying to untie such tightenings, so loosen a few
more, why knot! There is a big one
fastened at your throat, the problem of whether you're
in harmony with that which has
no definition. Solve that!
You examine
substance and
accidents. You waste
your life making subject and verb agree. You edit
hearsay. You study artifacts and think
you know the maker, so proud of having figured the
derivation. Like a scientist you collect
data and put facts together to come to some
conclusion.
Mystics arrive at what they
know differently: they lay their head upon a person's
chest and drift into the answer.
Thinking gives off smoke to prove the existence of fire.
A mystic sits inside the burning.
There are wonderful shapes in rising smoke that
imagination loves to watch. But it's
a mistake to leave the fire for that filmy sight. Stay
here
at the flame's core.
