Rumi...

The spiritual heir of Muhammed is seated in front
of you, but where indeed is "front"?

He is before
you, but where is the soul that thinks "before"?
If you fancy you have a "before" and "behind,"
you are tied to body and deprived of spirit.

"Below" and "above," "before" and "behind,"
are attributes of the body:

the essence of the
bright spirit IS.

- Rumi
