Ten Lamps & One Light
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
Mawlana Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi (q.s.) wrote:
“If ten lamps are in one place,
Each differs in form from
another;
Yet, you cannot
distinguish whose radiance is whose,
When you focus on the
light.
In the field of spirits,
there is no division;
No individuals exist.
Sweet is the Oneness of
the Friend, with His friends.
Catch hold of spirit.
Help this headstrong self
disintegrate;
That beneath it you may discover unity,
Like a buried treasure.”
