Unfold your own myth

It is a trick of the ego to make us want to be overly dependent on people rather than on the Divine energy that breathes us and connects us all as One on that spiritual level.

This is a poem that serendipitously came to me yesterday while I was recording this video: https://www.instagram.com/tv/CaDm9UogVxc/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

UNFOLD YOUR OWM MYTH

By Rumi

Who gets up early to discover the moment before the light begins?  

 

Who lets the bucket down and brings

up a flowing prophet? Or like Moses goes for fire

and finds what burns inside the sunrise?  

 

Jesus slips into a house to escape enemies,

And opens a door to the other world.

Solomon cuts open a fish, and there’s a gold ring.

Omar storms in to kill the prophet

And leaves with blessings.

 

But don’t be satisfied with stories,

How things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth, without complicated explanation,

so everyone will understand the passage

We have opened you.

 

Start walking towards Shams. Your legs will get heavy and tired. THEN COMES THE MOMENT OF FEELING THE WINGS YOU’VE GROWN,

LIFTING.
