be(coming







.



I have already died all deaths, and I am going to die all deaths again, die the death of the wood in the tree, die the stone death in the mountain, earth death in the sand, leaf death in the crackling summer grass and the poor bloody human death. I will be born again, flowers, tree and grass I will be born again.


—Herman Hesse

 


.   .   .



There is a force within
Which gives you life –
seek That.

In your body
Lies a priceless gem – 
seek That.

O wandering Sufi,
if you want to find
the greatest treasure
Don’t look outside,
Look inside, and seek That.


—Rumi
Star/Shiva version
