In love with the art of madness

I’m weary of personal worrying,
in love with the art of madness. - Rumi

Raise your words, not voice.
It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.

Rumi (via shaktilover)

When you come to see that you can do nothing, that the play of thought or feeling just goes on by itself as a happening, then you are in a state which we will call meditation. And slowly without being pushed, your thoughts will come to silence. That is to say, all the verbal symbolic chatter going on in the skull — don’t try and get rid of it because that will again produce the illusion that there’s a controller. It just goes on and goes on and goes on and finally gets tired of itself, gets bored and stops. And so then there’s a silence. And this is a deeper level of meditation. And in that silence you suddenly begin to see the world as it is.

Alan Watts

One day you will take me completely out of my self,
I’ll do what the angels cannot do.

Your eyelash will write on my cheek
the poem that hasn’t been thought of.

You playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightening about shrinking so that others won’t feel uncomfortable around you. As you let your own light shine, you indirectly give others permission to do the same.
