Godlight, if You’re Interested
Any patch of sunlight in a wood will show you
something about the sun which you could never
get from reading books on astronomy.
These pure and spontaneous pleasures are
‘patches of Godlight’ in the woods of our experience.
~C.S. Lewis

Sufism has never had a first exponent or a historical origin. It existed from the beginning because human beings have always possessed the light which is their second nature.
And light in its higher aspect may be called the knowledge of God, the divine wisdom — in fact Sufism. Sufism has always been practiced and its messengers have been people of the heart.
~Hazrat Inayat Khan

CR Lama always said if you have interest that’s all. That’s the only entrance ticket for dharma, if you have interest.

A reverence of approach awakens depth and enables us to be truly present where we are. When we approach with reverence great things decide to approach us. Our real life comes to the surface and its light awakens the concealed beauty in things.
