To walk with light hearts and to remind yourselves as often as you can...
Rumi's answer to questions asked by a disciple:
What is Poison? He replied with a beautiful answer:
Anything which is more than our necessity is Poison. It may be Power, Wealth, Hunger, Ego, Greed, Laziness, Love, Ambition, Hate or anything
What is fear? Non acceptance of uncertainty. If we accept that uncertainty, it becomes adventure...!
What is envy? Non acceptance of good in others If we accept that good, it becomes inspiration...!
What is Anger? Non acceptance of things which are beyond our control. If we accept, it becomes tolerance...!
What is hatred? Non acceptance of person as he is. If we accept person unconditionally, it becomes love...!
Rumijevi odgovori na vprašanja me močno spominjajo na arhetip Midasa, ki izhaja iz grške zgodbe o bogatem kralju, ki vsega česar se dotakne, spremeni v zlato. Paradoksalno se v zlato spremeni tudi njegova hči. Zgodba je prispodoba za arhetip, ki ima podjetniške in kreativne sposobnosti ter moč, da generira bogastvo za celotno kraljestvo (skupnost). V senčnem aspektu je Midas zelo pohlepen in postane Miser (Skopušnik). Svojega bogastva ni pripravljen deliti, zato so njegove največje lekcije v življenju povezane z velikodušnostjo.
Na katerem področju vašega življenja se vse česar se dotaknete spremeni v zlato? V odnosih, v službi, pri delu, v karieri, pri pomoči drugim, pri delu z otroci, pri igri?
Na katerih področjih skoparite? S čustvi, podporo, pomočjo, odzivnostjo, z denarjem?...
