Dawn of Resurrection



Whoever has drunk a draught
from the cup of the Friend,
Shall not become sober again
until the dawn of resurrection.

—Hafez

Ocean Freedom

Ocean Freedom

What about the Divine Ocean’s great generosity?
Who could ever refuse the joy we feel to anyone?
Fish do not hold this sacred liquid in a cup,
they swim the vast fluidity in perfect freedom.
For we’ve come into the presence of the One
who was never apart from us.

—from Rumi
