And for tomorrow night as well,
As a matter of fact
I know of no better topic
For us to discuss
Until we all
Die!

Where the flame of Love rises, the knowledge of God unfolds itself.
~ Hazrat Inayat Khan
"I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being."
~ Hafiz
"The path to the Truth is a labour of the heart, not of the head. Make your heart your primary guide! Not your mind. Meet, challenge and ultimately prevail over your nafs (fears, worries, doubts, attachments, etc) with your heart. Knowing your ego will lead you to the knowledge of God."

~ Shams I' Tabrizi
