Love Bud

Leaves and flowers of a tree give clue about its root. Words, actions and way of living of human are the evidences of his essence as well. Love bud becomes green from the tree of love, then, hear your heart; it tells the truth.
Do not forget, what beautifies human most is love. “Love is foreign to both worlds, it has seventy two kinds of madness. Although it is highly hidden, the surprise it causes is apparent; even Sultan of the soul longs for it sometimes. Religious and sect of love is out of seventy two religious. Compared with Him, thrones of Sultans are an ordinary piece of wood.
Minstrel of Love plays that song during Sema: “Being a servant is a bond, whereas being a master is a nuisance! Then, what is love? It is the sea of non-existence. The foot of reason is broken there. Being a slave and a sultanate, devotion (Being a lover of God) is much hidden than those two veils.”
If you have divine love, you cannot make an exception. Love is the sea of non-existence. Every drop reaching that sea will be the sea itself, not a drop any longer. Could you seperate those drops from each other (from the sea)?
A grape can be many-sized and its color varies from fair to dark. However they are grape juice when you squeeze them in a jar. If you are able to see the world in a similar way, able to love all the created and able to hug them with affection, it means that God makes His Theophany felt in you. Then, you are divine love.
