I have just finished reading it and i'm not entirely sure what to say, it's so very deep and meaningful, the mind needs time to process it. I will think about this a lot more, maybe read the posts again and then I will try to come back with an answer.

I can hear what you saying, Rumi's poetry is so vast that it perplexes my mind in even my most meager attempts to process it. And of course this is only one writer's interpretation of what it all means, embracing just one aspect of the whole of it. It is quite illuminating though, a drop from an unfathomable ocean, as another quote sums it up well.

O CHILDREN OF THE DIVINE AND INVISIBLE ESSENCE!
Ye shall be hindered from loving Me and souls shall be perturbed as they make mention of Me. For minds cannot grasp Me nor hearts contain Me.

(Baha'u'llah, The Arabic Hidden Words)
