Weekly Reading
At the very center of our being is a great spaciousness that is untouched by sin and illusion.A point of pure truth which is inaccessible to the fantasies of our mind or the brutalities of our will.It’s like a pure diamond – blazing with the invisible light of heaven. It’s in everybody. And if we could only see it and integrate it – we would radiate a peace that would make all the darkness and all the cruelty vanish forever.

Weekly Reading
What is the greatest gift? Could it be the world itself-the oceans, the meadowlark,the patience of the trees in the wind? Could it be love, with its sweet clamor of passion?Something else-something else entirely holds me in thrall.That you have a life that I wonder aboutmore than I wonder about my own.That you have a life-courteous and intelligent-thatI wonder about more than I wonder about my own.That you have a soul-your own, no one else's-thatI wonder about more than I wonder about my own.So that I find my soul clapping its hands for yours more than my own.

The Guest House
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor. Welcome
and entertain them all! Even if they're a
crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep
your house empty of its furniture, still,
treat each guest honorably. He may be
clearing you out for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing, and invite
them in. Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent as a guide
from beyond.
~ Rumi ~
