This comes from part of a larger body, written by Rumi:
"Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there."
It's always resonated with me, deeply, likely stemming from early experiences of not ever being seen for who I am. It holds power for me in numerous ways. When I think of the ways in which we align ourselves by beliefs, which cause fracturing in our cultures, for instance: This quote. When we struggle with shame: This quote. When what is required is for love to trump everything else: This quote.
Second, and similar quote that's made a huge difference in winnowing down the muck to find what my core belief actually is: ॐ मणि पद्मे हूँ om mani padme hum.
It is a reminder of who I am, you are, we are, all in the Divine. Great compassion can't help but begin to flow.
