Skinning Your Knees on God ,Renderings of Hafiz



Skinning Your Knees on God

Little by little,
You will turn into stars.

Even then, my dear,
You will only be
A crawling infant,
Still skinning your knees on God.

Little by little,
You will turn into
The whole sweet, amorous Universe
In heat
On a wild spring night,

And become so free
In a wonderful, secret
And pour Love
That flows
From a conscious,
One-pointed
Infinite need for Light.

Even then, my dear,
The Beloved will have fulfilled
Just a fraction,
Just a fraction!
Of a promise
He wrote upon your heart.

When your soul begins
To Ever bloom and laugh
And spin in Eternal Ecstasy -

O little by little,
You will turn into God.

 

("I Heard God Laughing - Renderings of Hafiz" by Daniel Ladinsky)

                                                     

A Note From the Universe To YOU



If it's not yet obvious to you, the real reason for this season is you. A more perfect child of the Universe has never lived. Until now, only a celebration cloaked in myth and
mystery could hint at your sublime heritage and divine destiny.
You are life's prayer of becoming and its answer. The first light at the dawn of eternity, drawn from the ether, so that the Universe
might know its depths, discover its heights, and frolic in endless seas
of blessed emotion.


 
A pioneer
into illusion, an adventurer into the unknown, and a lifter of veils.
Courageous, heroic and exalted by billions in the unseen.

To give beyond reason.

To care beyond hope.

To love without limit.

To reach, stretch, and dream, in spite of your fears.

These are the hallmarks of divinity - traits of the
immortal - your badges of honor. Wear them with a pride as great as the
unspeakable pride we feel for you.

Your light has illuminated darkened paths,

your gaze has lifted broken spirits,

and already your life has changed the destiny of all who will ever follow.

This is the time of year we celebrate you

    The Universe
