From Mingyur Rinpoche's 'Turning Confusion into Clarity': “The essence of the guru is the guru... The physical form of the guru is just perception. When seen through ordinary perception, I am not enlightened. You cannot receive any blessings from this ordinary form. The real teacher is the wisdom essence of this body, speech, and mind.”23.01.2015

Loneliness was not a desert, rather a small box which I tried to decorate with all sorts of pictures and objects that only made it tinier. Then you came and knocked and I opened because you insisted and I was curious. You who came and in just one instant, in just one step into the unknown, in just one decision to give up, my life was full again. ...
To my lover who is far away and as close as ever
Loneliness was not a desert, rather a small box which I tried to decorate with all sorts of pictures and objects that only made it tinier. Then you came and knocked and I opened because you insisted and I was curious. You who came and in just one instant, in just one step into the unknown, in just one decision to give up, my life was full again. You brought space to grow and air to breath. You brought joy that quietly envelops the whole being, and tears of light that wash away all darkness, and immense gratitude to you for your being, for challenging me, for showing the limitations of my mind, for bringing me in touch with the vulnerability of my own heart, for showing me my own desires and my own wisdom. For the love that I am feeling.
It is impossible to foget those who you once met It is impossible to stop loving those who you once loved
I feel all the tears your shed, my love Cuz they runs from my own eyes
I feel how much you want to be held And healed and helped And I will give you my hand If you want to hold it
But you have to walk forward with your own feet You have to see your future with your own eyes You have to dream ...

По капле любовь Кап-кап Из моих уст в твои уста В мой рот из твоего рта Из моего рта в твой рот А она всё поёт и поёт Свою песню боли и гнева Но я не верю её боли Я не верю её песне Я не верю в разбитое сердце Он сказал, что сердце не бьётся Что оно сияет и бьётся Что ж, моё изумрудное сердце, Бейся, словно на поле Куру
Rumi: "Come, Come, Whoever You Are Wonderer, worshipper, lover of leaving. It doesn't matter. Ours is not a caravan of despair. Come, even if you have broken your vow a thousand times Come, yet again, come, come."
