Timelessness

To feel longing even when together is to fly within time to timelessness.

Mevlana is a great man of the heart who blended his love of life and grand Divine Love into immortality and offered generations to come this elixir of love. People find the remedy for their sorrows in him and virtue and truth in his words.
To Mevlana this world of form is very important. It's only in dying that one comes to life; only within existence can one reach non-existence. To feel longing even when together is to fly within time to timelessness. This love of Mevlana's is as cool as a morning breeze, bringing friendship to hearts which have been friendless.
For Rumi the love and Divine Love that make us human are God Himself. (to be continued)
