The Mirror of Mind

Rumi the Sufi: "Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or Zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am not from the East or West, not out of the ocean or up from the ground, if not natural or ethereal, not composed of elements at all. I do not exist, am not an entity in this world or the next. I did not descend from Aden and Eve or any origin story. My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless, neither body or soul, I belong to the beloved, have seen the two worlds as one, and that one calls to know, first, last, outer, inner, only that breath breathing human.’’

God is All in All (ONE Unity). See the light in your own mirrored mind. Atonement (One with God). Rather than being divided by a named building, creed or 'ism,' find unity with all beings as a follower of the Way. What does this mean? One Mind - One Heart - One Unity. Bow with this unity in service to all equally, respecting the dignity of all beings as your own.

Mirror of Mind - Rumi the Sufi:

How does Rumi describe the Lord?

Ah! you who smite with your sword him beside himself,

You smite yourself therewith; Beware!

For he that is beside himself is annihilated and safe;

Yea, he dwells in security forever.

His form is vanished, he is a mere mirror;

Nothing is seen in him but the reflection of another.

If you spit at it, you spit at your own face,

And if you hit that mirror, you hit yourself;

And if you see an ugly face in it, 'tis your own,

And if you see an 'Isa there, you are its mother Mary.

He is neither this nor that he is void of form;

'Tis your own form which is reflected back to you.

But when the discourse reaches this point, lip is closed;

When pen reaches this point, it is split in twain.

Close then your lips, though eloquence be possible.

Keep silence; God knows the right way!

---As your mirror. Love the Lord with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'

Know Thyself!

Temple of Luxor Aphorisms

- The best and shortest road towards knowledge of truth is Nature.

- For every joy there is a price to be paid.

- If his heart rules him, his conscience will soon take the place of the rod.

- If you search for the laws of harmony, you will find knowledge.

- If you are searching for a Neter [source of creation], observe Nature! Exuberance is a good stimulus towards action, but the inner light grows in silence and concentration.
