#384 Rumi's Wings
Inspired by: Mevlana RumiDiscuss this Big Idea in the Forums!
"God turns you from one feeling to another and teaches by means of opposites, so that you will have two wings to fly, not one."
~ Mevlana Rumi, 13th century sufi poet and mystic from Rumi Daylight: A Daybook of Spiritual Guidance
Ever notice how we can bounce back and forth from one idea to its opposite? Equally convinced one was the right path/truth for us at the time?
I love reflecting on Rumi’s wisdom that God’s turning us from one feeling to another so that we may have two wings to fly and not one. How amazing is that?
So, don’t beat yourself up when you find yourself exploring different perspectives. See the creation of our beautiful wings that will continue to lift our consciousness higher and higher!
To flight!
…
And, as we develop our wings, Rumi advises, "Travelers, it is late. Life’s sun is going to set. During these brief days that you have strength, be quick and spare no effort of your wings.”
