' I Am Within '...

“There came one, and knocked at the door, of the Beloved... And a voice answered, and said, 'Who is there?'.. The lover replied,, 'It is I.'... 'Go hence,',, returned the voice;,, 'there is no room within for thee, and me.'... Then came the lover, a second time, and knocked and again, the voice demanded, 'Who is there?'.. He answered,, 'It is thou.'.. 'Enter,'.. said the voice,, 'for I am within.” ................. Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi, The Way of the Sufi
