Beauty surrounds us

“Beauty surrounds us, but usually we need to be walking in a garden to know it.”

~ Jalal ad-din Rumi
-Translated by Coleman Barks.

Every heart contains many gardens.

Our guide of the Shadhiliyya Sufi Order, Shaykh Muhammad al-Jamal,
wrote in his book, Music of the Soul:

“What are you searching for?
Search for your heart, the heart of your soul.
All the secrets are in the heart of your soul.
Everything is inside you.
You have many hearts, yet all these are one.
When I say many hearts, I mean many stations of the heart.
In every station, there is a garden with a quality.
Know the meaning of this quality in every station.
It may be the garden of the polite,
the garden of the giving,
or the garden of the love.

What you see are many gardens inside you.”

Walk in the garden of your heart!
