this is such an awesome message, had to share with you all. hey, it even has the word sacred in it!
the alchemy of love
you come to us
from another world
from beyond the stars
and void of space.
transcendent, pure,
of unimaginable beauty,
bringing with you
the essence of love
you transform all
who are touched by you.
mundane concerns,
troubles, and sorrows
dissolve in your presence,
bringing joy
to ruler and ruled
to peasant and king
you bewilder us
with your grace.
all evils
transform into
goodness
you are the master alchemist.
you light the fire of love
in earth and sky
in heart and soul
of every being.
through your loving
existance and nonexistance merge.
all opportunities unite.
all that is profane
becomes sacred again.

Re: the alchemy of love a poem by rumi
Sat, November 10, 2007 - 12:23 PMhere is some more rumi..........
there is a community of the spirit.
join it, and feel the delight
of walking in the noisy street,
and being the noise.
drink all your passion,
and be a disgrace.
close both eyes
to see with the other eye.
open your hands,
if you want to be held.
sit down in this circle. -

Re: sit down in this circle...
Tue, November 13, 2007 - 10:14 AMwe are a circle
within a circle
with no beginning
and never ending
Inside our hearts there lies a spark
Love and desire, a burning fire....
Within our blood, within our tears
There lies the altar of lving water
take our fer, take our pain
take the darkness into the earth again....
The circle closes between the worlds
to mark the sacred space, where we come face to face....
we are a circle
within a circle
with no beginning
and never ending
........... one of my favorite chants...... thank you ........... so simple and yet so prfoundly speaks to me on so many levels...
and fun .... !
I so totally love romping in circle and snaking out and then back into circle with this...... ! -
