Love threshes you and leaves you naked...

He who says, 'I love you but only so much, I love you and give you sixpence but I keep sixpence for myself, I love you but I stand at a distance and never come closer, we are separate beings'- his love is with his self. As long as that exists, love has not done its full work. Love accomplishes its work when it spreads its wings and veils man's self from his own eyes. That is the time when love is fulfilled, and so it is in the life of the holy ones who have not only loved God by professing or showing it, but who have loved God to the extent that they forgot themselves.

I have seen....

Inayat Khan/Quotes
The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels.
Everything in life is speaking in spite of it's apparent silence.
I have seen all souls as my soul, and realized my soul as the soul of all.
There can be no rebirth without a dark night of the soul, a total annihilation of all that you believed in and thought that you were.
― Hazrat Inayat Khan, Thinking Like The Universe: The Sufi Path Of Awakening
