Sama - Rumi
What is deep listening?
Sama is a greeting from the secret ones inside the heart,
a letter. The branches of your "intelligence" grow
new leaves inhttps://www.instagram.com/p/Bwrz9AAAGhH/
The body reaches a peace.

Rooster sound comes, reminding you of your love
for dawn. The reed flute and thin singer's lips:
the knack of how spirit breathes into us
becomes as simple and ordinary as
eating and drinking.

Listen, and feel the beauty of the
unsayable...
unsayable...
Give more of your life to this listening.
As brightness is to time, so are you to
the one who talks to the deep ear in
your chest.

I should sell my tongue and buy a thousand
ears when that one steps near and begins to speak.

Sama is the quality of calmness and tranquility
of the mind...It is deep listening as a way
of connecting with the Divine

This silence, this moment, every moment,
if it's genuinely inside you,
brings what you need
if it's genuinely inside you,
brings what you need
There's nothing to believe.
Only when I stopped believing in myself
did I come into this beauty.
Only when I stopped believing in myself
did I come into this beauty.
Sit quietly,
and listen for a voice that will say,
'Be more silent.'
and listen for a voice that will say,
'Be more silent.'
Die and be quiet.
Quietness is the surest sign that you've died.
Your old life was a frantic running from silence.
Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking.
Your old life was a frantic running from silence.
Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking.
Live in silence.

AFTERNOON
With passion pray.
With passion make love.
With passion eat and drink and dance and play.
Why look like a dead fish in this ocean of God?

All religions, all this singing, one song.
The differences are just illusion and vanity.
The sun’s light looks a little different
on this wall than it does on that wall,
and a lot different on this other one,
but it’s still one light.

Close the door of words
that the window of your heart may open.
To see what cannot be seen
turn your eyes inward
and listen, in silence.

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.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,

Welcome and entertain 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 whomever comes,
because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.

EVERYTHING IS HANDLED
JOHN MCINTOSH
The false self cannot conceive
of LIFE taking care of everything.
It believes something must be done,
effort must be exerted,
agendas, activities, actions, plans, schemes
must be exercised so that results will ensue,
and it will be cared for
… and hopefully it will thrive and enjoy itself and have wonderful experiences.

This is the lament of the personal identity
which is due to its belief that it is basically alone,
a victim of circumstances
in a dog-eat-dog world.

And yet in the Stillness of your True Reality
EVERYTHING is handled Perfectly
if this personal ‘you’ stays out of the way.
EVERYTHING is handled Perfectly

This ‘is’ occurring anyway
but the false self produces endless detours
through its interference,
always laden with struggle, pain, frustration
and the feeling that is has
‘some’ degree of control ...
… it has NONE,
no control over anything whatsoever because,
“of itself it is nothing”.

There is no need at all to tell the God-SELF

Rest in this ‘knowing’
and watch LIFE perform
what you may now think of
as miracles and yet …
... are normal.
