" "
It is time to put up a love-swing!
Tie the body and then tie the mind so that they
swing between the arms of the Secret One you love,
Bring the water that falls from the clouds to your eyes,
and cover yourself inside entirely with the shadow of night.
Bring your face up close to his ear,
and then talk only about what you want deeply to happen.

There the Eternal Fountain is playing its endless life-streams of birth and death.

There the Unstruck Music eddies around the Infinite One;

"What a wonderful lotus it is, that blooms at the heart of the spinning wheel of the universe! Only a few pure souls know of its true delight.Music is all around it, and there the heart partakes of the joy of the Infinite Sea.Kabir says: "Dive thou into that Ocean of sweetness: thus let all errors of life and of death flee away.
