[iamom]

Watching the moon
at dawn,
solitary, mid-sky,
I knew myself completely:
no part left out.

-- Izumi Shikibu (974 - 1034), from The Enlightened Heart, edited by Stephen Mitchell

---

Are you searching for your soul?
Then come out of your prison.

Leave the stream and join the river ...
that flows into the ocean.

Absorbed in this world ...
you've made it your burden...

Rise above this world
There is 'another' vision ...

-- Rumi, from Whispers of the Beloved, Maryam Mafi & Azima Melita Kolin
