“Trust your wound to a Teacher’s surgery.
Flies collect on a wound.
They cover it, those flies of your
self-protecting feelings,
your love for what you think is yours.

Let a Teacher wave away the flies
and put a plaster on the wound.

Don’t turn your head.
Keep looking at the bandaged place.
That’s where the Light enters you.


And don’t believe for a moment that you’re healing yourself.”
- Rumi
