My Continued Search for God: The True Nature

ONLY FIVE TO GO BEFORE MY FINAL THOUGHTS ON GOD!


If you have read some of my previous work, you will know that while I consider myself a spiritual person, I do not consider myself a religious person and am not so sure I believe in a God. I have read, studied, discussed and continue my "search for God." The first breakthrough was when I realized  that there could be a "spiritual god", up until then only thinking in terms of a "religious god." But that is a different story. Meanwhile I would like to share a number of "Love Poems from God" edited by Daniel Ladinsky 2002.Only a few of the poems spoke to me and I continue to contemplate them and document them here for you as well as for my future study.


Hafiz (c 1320-1389) is the most beloved poet of Persia and is considered to be one of history's greatest lyrical geniuses. 


THE TRUE NATURE


Know
the true nature of your
Beloved.


In
His
loving eyes
your every thought, word, and movement
is always, always


beautiful.
