Mystical Mondays: Rumi's Hope for Us



Translations by Daniel Ladinsky


What do you need to remove for yourself?  sit back and imagine God saying this to you...



I Guess You Won't Mind


Great lions can find peace in a cage.
but we should only do that
as a last
resort.

So those bars I see that restrain your wings,
I guess you won’t mind
if I pry them
open

Rumi
