Listen to me, My love<\/p>\n
I am the truth of the universe,<\/p>\n
the center of all circles.<\/p>\n
I am the beginning and the constituent,<\/p>\n
the power initiated between heaven and earth.<\/p>\n
I created perception within you so that you may perceive me.<\/p>\n
Your perceptions become reality,<\/p>\n
only if you can perceive me.<\/p>\n
But you cannot perceive me through yourself.<\/p>\n
You cannot see me with your own eyes.<\/p>\n
Only through my eyes,<\/p>\n
can you see me and yourself.<\/p>\n
My love,<\/p>\n
how many times have I called to you, and you have not heard?<\/p>\n
How many times have I revealed myself to you through my signs,<\/p>\n
and you have not noticed?<\/p>\n
In the fragrance of the flowers,<\/p>\n
you did not sense it.<\/p>\n
In all the forms of provision on Earth,<\/p>\n
in the sweet taste of the food of the earth,<\/p>\n
and you did not consciously savor it.<\/p>\n
In the coolness of the crystal-clear water<\/p>\n
and the morning breeze on your skin,<\/p>\n
and you didn’t wake up.<\/p>\n
I am absolute beauty.<\/p>\n
I am the Merciful One.<\/p>\n
Love Me, only Me,<\/p>\n
only Me.<\/p>\n
Trust in Me.<\/p>\n
No one and nothing is closer to you than I am.<\/p>\n
Others love you for their own sake,<\/p>\n
but I love you for who you are.<\/p>\n
When you realize you are drawing closer to Me,<\/p>\n
in fact, you are discovering Me within yourself.<\/p>\n
I am closer to you than you are to yourself,<\/p>\n
closer to you than your breaths,<\/p>\n
and deeper within you than your soul.<\/p>\n
In what forms of creation<\/p>\n
could you find love as real as the Creator’s?<\/p>\n
Love,<\/p>\n
come to Me for union.<\/p>\n
With Me, you can eliminate the paths of separation.<\/p>\n
Hand in hand, come to the Truth.<\/p>\n
And Truth will be the eternal judge of this Union.<\/p>\n
