Sacredness/ Hafiz

The Persian mystic poet, Hafiz who lived in thirteenth century Iran, wrote numerous inspirational poetry. This particular poem is bestowed with Sufi theme and philosophy. Hafiz states that it is the time to let the world know about the grace of  the Almighty and realize the real essence of His existence, which in fact is our very own. Everything in the world is graceful and beautiful and entirely complete, including us.

We need to accept it all , these graces and gifts in the spirit of love and sacredness. The grace of the indefinable is everywhere, in air and round the corners-- in the all encompassing `All`, we need only to realize it. See it with the eyes of the soul.

'Now Is The Time', which is one of my favorites. It is condense in its meaning and inspirational in its purpose. Told in simplicity, with few words, that which is incomprehensible, unfathomable and most complex  question regarding spirit and existence.

Now Is The Time

Now is the time to know

That all that you do is sacred.

Now is the time to understand

That all your ideas of right and wrong

Were just a child's training wheels

To be laid aside

When you finally live

With veracity

And love.

Now is the time for the world to know

That every thought and action is sacred.

This is the time for you to compute the impossibility

That there is anything

But Grace.

Now is the season to know

That everything you do

Is sacred.
