"En el bautismo, el novicio, con una corona de oro y exornado de cintas, bajaba a un hoyo cuya boca cubrían con un enjaretado de madera, sobre el cual colocaban un toro. Sobre el enjaretado mataban al toro con una lanza sagrada, y su sangre caliente y arcante caía a chorros por los agujeros, siendo recibida esta lluvia con devoción por el adorador, que con el cuerpo y el vestido empapados de sangre salía del hoyo." — Feb 11, 2026 07:33PM

“Death is the only wise advisor that we have. Whenever you feel, as you always do, that everything is going wrong and you're about to be annihilated, turn to your death and ask if that is so. Your death will tell you that you're wrong; that nothing really matters outside its touch. Your death will tell you, 'I haven't touched you yet.”

“We hardly ever realize that we can cut anything out of our lives, anytime, in the blink of an eye.”

“Lose yourself,
Lose yourself in this love.
When you lose yourself in this love,
you will find everything.
Lose yourself,
Lose yourself.
Do not fear this loss,
For you will rise from the earth
and embrace the endless heavens.
Lose yourself,
Lose yourself.
Escape from this earthly form,
For this body is a chain
and you are its prisoner.
Smash through the prison wall
and walk outside with the kings and princes.
Lose yourself,
Lose yourself at the foot of the glorious King. When you lose yourself
before the King
you will become the King.
Lose yourself,
Lose yourself.
Escape from the black cloud
that surrounds you.
Then you will see your own light
as radiant as the full moon.
Now enter that silence.
This is the surest way
to lose yourself. . . .
What is your life about, anyway?—
Nothing but a struggle to be someone,
Nothing but a running from your own silence.”
― Rumi: In the Arms of the Beloved
