Någon där?

Månadens inspiration: November 1999.

En dikt av:  Jelaluddin Rumi
 

In God we trust
 

?

I tried to find Him on the Christian Cross, but He was not there; I went to
the Temple of the Hindus and to the old pagodas, but I could not find a trace
of Him anywhere.

I searched on the mountains and in the valleys but neither in the heights nor
in the depths was I able to find Him. I went to the Caaba in Mecca, but He
was not there either.

I questioned the scholars and the philosophers, but He was beyond their understanding.

I then looked into my heart and it was there where He dwelled that I saw him;
He was nowhere else to be found.
