Allah has become your breath - flowing in, flowing out, Rahman i'Rahim - so that the Life you receive you may offer.Shiva has become your breath - So'ham, God I Am - so that the Bliss you receive you may offer. Yes, my soul is the pulsation of Goddess Shakti in his stillness.
Jesus has become your breath - Ish'hua, Ish'hua - and this breath is his luminous bride, the Holy Spirit, so that the Love you are given you may offer.
Wiser than all the Vedas, wiser than the Qu'ran or a thousand Bibles, is the Silence between your breaths. Cherish and abandon, cherish and abandon.
Here is the ancient science of bewilderment: breathe the joy that created you.
She who fashioned your bones out of dust and made them hollow, who filled your chest with the boundless sky, has become your Emptiness.
Why? So that you may sing the name of the Beloved, and fill her womb with praise.
Painting, Hafiz by Mahmoud Farschian
