If you can’t smell the fragrance don’t come into the garden… - Rumi

If you can’t smell the fragrance don’t come into the garden of Love. If you’re unwilling to undress don’t enter into the stream of Truth. Stay where you are. Don’t come our way.

Why should I seek more?
I am the same as he.
His essence speaks through me.
