from Rumi
and
be completely clear-hearted,
like
the face of a mirror
that
contains no images.
If
you want a clear mirror,
behold
yourself
and
see the shameless truth,
which
the mirror reflects.
If
metal can be polished
to
a mirror-like finish,
what
polishing might the mirror
of
the heart require?
Between
the mirror and the heart
is
this single difference:
the
heart conceals secrets,
while
the mirror does not.
