At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door, and open the love-window. The moon won’t use the door, only the window.
-Rumi "Jalaluddin Rumi"
At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door, and open the love-window. The moon won’t use the door, only the window.

torturing himself. Otherwise he, who loves himself, can never cause harm to
anyone.

In reality, what you are is not that important as "are you really what you portray
yourself to be?"

Open yourself, create free space; release the bound one from his bonds! Like a newborn child, freed from the womb, be free to move on every path!
The one who loves himself, would atleast not worry or be jealous.
-Deep Trivedi
Fight with yourself, why fight with external foes? He, who overcomes self will obtain happiness.
All the lights of the world cannot be compared even to a ray of inner light of the Self.
The one who doesn't love himself, can never love anyone else in this world. And
if he loves himself, atleast he would not torture or trouble anyone in the name of
religion or teachings...
-Deep Trivedi
