The Twin Flame Journey: Naked

  There are no rules about twin flames always have similar apearance ,they can  look very different...They are often different race or nationality, culture ,so the appearance can be very different. They are often “odd couples” - different age, short and tall, skinny and large, light skin and dark skin etc.  If you look the same - this can be considered a synchronicity, and additional sign of TFs, but similar appearance does not make you TFs automatically - it is more typical for Romantic Soulmates who chose highly compatible bodies as they have marriage or long-term relationship soul contract. But even Romantic Soulmates can chose to be born in different races or countries/cultures if they have “building bridges” mission. When one meets a soulmate, they are essentially meeting a friend whom they can confide in, whom they feel connected to right off the bat, someone who makes them feel good, who is always there for them and with whom they feel happy and lighthearted. Meeti...

Rumi- Go Back To Sleep

Rumi: Hatch The Helplessness

Pray the prayer that is the essence of every ritual: "God I have no hope. I am torn to shreds. You are my First, my Last, and my only Refuge." Do not do daily prayers like a bird, pecking its head up and down. Prayer is an egg. Hatch out the total helplessness inside. Reference~ Rumi

Rumi- The Slaughterhouse

In this slaughterhouse of love, they kill only the best, none of the weak or deformed. Don't run away from this dying. Whoever's not killed for love is dead meat. ~ Rumi

Rumi- Ashamed

I am ashamed to call this love human and afraid of God to call it divine       ~Rumi

Rumi- My Faith and Heresy

I said: O friend, are you truly my beloved? I gaze at you and see that you are my soul if you gave up on me I would change my religion you are my faith and my heresy both Reference~ Rumi

Insane People

I became crazy really insane and insane people never sleep they don't even know where they might find the path that leads to sleep God too never sleeps so God's insane people are simply taking after God Reference~Rumi

Between You And The Street

Falling the way you do at times, I offer my body between you and the street. Any concern for you from another heart, protects. Prayers can solicit angels' help. What is meant to be, is just that, and will unfold. Still, show some guts.  Say to destiny,           "I am calling the shots around here; take a hike." That probably won't change much, but you will  get my respect. Falling the way you will at times, I offer my body between you and any street, pothole, or abyss. Reference~ The Purity Of Desire

Only You

only you i choose among the entire world is it fair of you letting me be unhappy my heart is a pen in your hand it is all up to you to write me happy or sad i see only what you reveal and live as you say all my feelings have the color you desire to paint Reference~ Rumi

All My Friends

all my friends departed like dreams left alone i called upon one friend to become my entire dream this is the one who soothes my heart with endless tenderness and love the one who  one hour bestows inner peace and the next the nectar of life this dream too as it arrives i come alive and as it departs i'm helpless again Reference~ Rumi

Your Drunk

forgive me if I get cocky and conceited at times I'm just your drunk don't rush me to my death you already have me in your hand you tell me: "I've created such a big  world for you to play in" but you tied my feet so where could I go? Reference~  Rumi

Melt Away Completely

I won't grant you your wish if you don't give me your heart if you don't do what I ask I won't give you what you want quit being so false and don't play dead I swear on your soul and your heart I won't give myself to you until you melt away completely Reference~ The Rubais of Rumi

Take A Good Look

One night during prayers a vision  of the Beloved appeared to me. Lifting the veil from his face, he said: "Take a good look at the one you always leave behind." Reference~ Awhad al-Din Kirmani

Give Up Your Life

"Give up the known, give up your life for the mystery of Love's eternal wine." "But before I die," I said, "I would like to know you." "Once you know me there will be no more dying." Reference~ Rumi

Make the Heart Burn

the heart is a candle waiting to be lit and illuminated because of separation from the beloved it feels ripped and torn and needs to be sewn back together if you don't know how to make the heart burn listen to this: love is something to encounter not to learn Reference~ Rumi

Without A Lot of Hoopla

That conch shell you crawled into on land, then grew so large in there, you got stuck- I am going to help get you out.  It is just a matter now of whether I should use my hammer, or chant some magic words that could knock twenty pounds off your ego and/or waistline.  Then you could just slip back into God without a lot of hoopla and sweat on both our parts. Sorry though.  I don't think there is any special tonic, or voodoo, to remedy a plight quite like yours. So brace yourself sweetheart. Here I come! Reference~ Rumi

Rumi- My Favorite Lines

~ I have remained in the prison of the world out of kindness where am I from, and the prison, where is it from?  Who have I stolen? ~ Know that there is but a single person in the world, that that person is with you, that it exists for you, works for you, and desires you. ~ All that is in the universe is not outside you, Look within for everything you want for it is you. ~ Desire the one who holds you in his desire.  Seek the one who holds you in his quest. ~ From the moment you went away I was separated from your gentle honey like wax. ~ Every evening I burn like a candle.  Joined to his flame, deprived of his affection. ~ I am like a lyre, my head bent in submission.  You, with either hand, strike and caress me. ~ Seeing how many miles you have to go, I set up a little stall on your route.  I serve a nice cup of tea, and I am never too busy to chat. ~ There is not a flood in all the worlds that can douse a sacred flame in me, that builds, that...

Four Elements

Within your nature is every element, so listen to some sage advice: You are demon and wild beast and angel and human- Whatever you cultivate, that you will be. Reference~ Baba Afdal Kashani

The Vision of Your Face

Your love, from before the beginning of time, is my soul- it's my very self. Your love is the treasure of my weak, begging heart. Perhaps your beauty has been far from me- but the vision of your face has stayed with me always. Reference~ Sultan Walad

The Soul's Dilemma

Once again, each day, I travel the path of your love. Every night, without fail, I mourn your absence anew. My soul lacks the courage to love one such as you- and my heart lacks the strength to abandon you too. Reference~ Attar
