Enlightenment, God, Guest Bloggers
Here’s a wonderfully hilarious and yet insightful pointer into the nature of the illusion. A poem by Iranian mystic and poet Hafiz.
Continued Discussion | 2 Forum CommentsYou are the sun in drag.
You are God hiding from yourself.
Remove all the “mine” – that is the veil.
Why ever worry about

Listen to what your friend Hafiz
Knows for certain:

Nothing into nothing.
You are a divine elephant with amnesia
Trying to live in an ant
Hole.
Sweetheart, O sweetheart
You are God in
Drag!-Hafiz
