Reality

In love, nothing exists between heart and heart.
Speech is born out of longing,
True description from the real taste.
The one who tastes, knows;
the one who explains, lies.
How can you describe the true form of Something
In whose presence you are blotted out?
And in whose being you still exist?
And who lives as a sign for your journey?

    Exquisite

    From guest Irene (contact)
    How generously Rabia shares the fruits of living her meditation. Bringing into form, the formless -- become real. A gift Divine shared down the centuries ... I bow in gratitude.

    No Verdict

    Great and wonderful poems spontaneously came out from the heart of the mystic woman saint Rabia.Your service is par excellence.Please add more if possible please add complete work of Rabia.
