No Place for Water and Earth (12/29/19) Look at these fragments of soul which have been chipped off, sparkling in this valley. Watch this sea. Watch these ships as they collide with each other. Look at Azra. See Vamuk.* See those creatures in the fire. Look at the Beloved. See More...
Love Has Arrived (12/22/19) Love has arrived and become the blood in my skin and veins. It has emptied me of my self, filling me with the Beloved. Every part of my body is now occupied by the Beloved. Only my name has been left to me. He has become More...
The Situation (12/15/19) I tried to describe the situation of my heart as I knew it. The tears and blood of my heart had become rough, but I couldn’t explain it. It was the other day, I was talking about my heart, saying a few words which were really More...
Death is Reaching Out to God (12/8/19) There is a new life in death for the man of faith and justice. From death, peace and calm come to clean souls. Death is reaching out to God, not out to fear and cruelty. The one who refuses to die with that More...

Nothing Except the Beloved (11/10/19) “As long as I live, I won’t stray from the right way.” I gave that oath to myself. But later, I looked to my right, then to my left, then to my right, then to my left. Each time, I saw nothing except the Beloved. More...
