Love yourself/love Him.
Bismi'llah arRahman arRahim. There is no refuge from Allah but in Him.

There's no hiding from the one but in the one.If you don't love yourself../ ... if I don't love myself,how can I love God,when ultimately they are the same thing?If I don't believe in myself how can I believe in God,on the same principle?
That'll do for that.
It's morning,it's Spring,it's peaceful and quiet.Something..some little thing,is missing..It's all almost in place..but not quite..Let's say I have had,or am having,a touch of non-duality.Only,when I go to read other people's versions of it,they seem so 'soso' as they say in Spanish. A bit wet,perhaps we would say,(literally saltless)..Pathetic might be too strong a word.
I don't think I'm going to get into trying to bite my own teeth this morning,and yet ... in some way .. I must write.Not talk,at least not for now..because it hasn't jelled yet and I have little to say or to teach.What for instance can I say to Ihsan about a real sufi sheikh as compared to any other if I am moving away from mine.
All that holds me back is fear.

Fear ... fear of what? ..annihilation perhaps?..Losing the little 'I'? Aaaaahhhh ....

What's the good of hiding?..What's the good of duality? Bah! Thinking ...
