Just NOW (2:45am-9/14/18)
 re-Remembering that we “almost” lost a finger
in the hand held beater blade yesterday…
...was only slightly, fleetingly,  inner grumbling about something…
and WHAP for that “close call”.

there is NO NO NO margin for negative thoughts/perceptions….
probably no margin for ANY thoughts and talking

All quotes below in this color font 
from
Rumi

​This silence, this moment, every moment,
If it's genuinely inside you,
​ brings what you need.

Hear from the heart wordless mysteries.

Come,
even if you have broken your vow
one thousand times,
come,
​yet again,
come, come.

Open your hands if you want to be held.

When I run after what I think I want,
my days are a furnace of stress and anxiety;
if I sit in my own place of patience,
what I need flows to me,
and without pain.
From this I understand that what I want
​also wants me,
is looking for me and attracting me.
​ There is a great secret here for anyone who can grasp it.

Last night
    I begged the Wise One to tell me
    the secret of the world.
    Gently, gently, he whispered,
    "Be quiet,
    the secret cannot be spoken,
    It is wrapped in silence

Now be silent.
 Let the One who creates the words speak.
 He made the door.
 He made the lock.
 He also made the key.

In every religion there is love,
yet love has no religion.

​Stop acting so small.
You are the universe in ecstatic motion.

Wherever you are,
and whatever you do,
​be in love.

There is a voice that doesn’t use words,
​listen.

In silence there is eloquence.
 Stop weaving and see how the pattern improves.

Let silence take you to the core of life.

"Unknowing knowing" Commentary - Granger

The following is the commentary by Ivan Granger that
accompanied the previously posted poem:
"Unknowing knowing"/"I Entered the Unknown."
posted here:
https://mysticmeandering.blogspot.com/2018/09/i-entered-unknown-st-john-of-cross.html
I thought it might be helpful...

He says:
...the poem's archaic use of the word "knowing" implies a
general sense of knowledge acquired through reason and the
testimony of the senses.

The Spanish Saint, [St. John of the Cross] is speaking about
the mystical idea of "unknowing",
the state in which all
concepts and mental filters have been set aside. ​

In that state
of unknowing, we rise above the elaborate constructions of the
logical mind and come to rest in pure awareness
("knowing by
unknowing"). 
He is contrasting true,
unfiltered knowing, gnosis,
with the mere accumulations and organization
of information.

To be unknowing in this sense
is to encounter every instant
entirely as it is,
in pure wonder,
without projections,
without
anticipation or agitation. ​

[Whereas] the intellectual mind.....
is always processing, analyzing and making everything fit
within its comprehension.  In interprets.
Awareness can step beyond the intellect to fully apprehend
reality...

This state of supreme unknowing is not perception
in the sense of
drawing in and interpreting exterior input
through the senses. ​

In normal perception,
the intellect sifts and sorts that sensory data
and formulates it into a working hypothesis
of what reality is.
...the mystic's unknowing
is the centered awareness
of unfiltered
reality.....
without an egoic agenda. 
The full awareness in this
state of unknowing does not sift reality,
it bathes in it.

"The transcendence  of "knowledge"
.....is found to be an experience of
"the deepest ecstasy of the Divine Essence."
[as St. John of the Cross calls it].
