Let go of your worries
and be completely clear-hearted,
Like the face of a mirror
that contains no images.
When it is empty of forms,
all forms are contained in it.
No face would be ashamed to be so clear.
If you want a clear mirror, behold yourself,
and see the shameless truth which the mirror refects.
If metal can be polished
to a mirror-like fnish –
what polishing does the mirror of the heart require?
Between the mirror and the heart is this single difference:
the heart conceals secrets
while the mirror does not.
— Rumi
