We all look different we all feel the same situation differently. We all are God's creations yet different from each other. Evil/Bad is what moves you away from the Light, and makes you weak. Goodness is what makes you strong and happy. Spirituality is like a scale with numerous levels. Therefore, disrespecting differences and imposing your thoughts on others is an amount of disrespecting God’s Holy scheme. If God had wanted everyone to be the same, He would have made it so. We were all created in His image, and yet we were each created differently and uniquely. They will try to bring you closer to God with love and care. True mentoring is as transparent as glass. A spiritual Mentor is a guide, a private tutor, never a preacher or priest. He will never be proud of himself, but simply show you the path towards the Light. He will help you and inspire your inner spiritual growth, but will not seek anything in return as he knows that you are of God … are the temple of Spirit. He will not expect absolute obedience or total admiration of you, but rather he will point you to your inner Self. A bona fide spiritual teacher will not direct your attention towards himself. Don't confuse egocentric, power-motivated individuals with real mentors. The rule explains that in the world you can find many who will misguide you or will try to detract you from seeing the reality. So, when I read this rule, I thought, "Wait a minute, I pause to read this here. I tend to think, in joy, that I can, for example, feel this quality that can remind me of something similar to God. Well, nowadays it's a little extreme to say that when you suffer, you can see the light. Just as clay needs to go through intense heat to become strong, Love can only be perfected in pain. Likewise, for a new self to be born, hardship is necessary. The midwife knows that when there is no pain, the way for the baby cannot be opened, and the mother cannot give birth. Only Happiness is real all else are transitory shadows. Many of the things we quarrel over are not important when seen at a Higher Level. They shared those simple and deep moments of being right, of existing, of dancing with the energy of the other, the sweet silence of pure Love. When Shams Tabrizi and Rumi met, they locked themselves into a room for forty Days to discuss each Rule with frequent moments of silence. Love takes all the risks and listens to the heart. When we Love someone we love unconditionally, without asking anything in return. It's too deep a broken heart hides treasures. Sometimes we see only darkness, only an abyss, but when the radiant moon glows, it brings light to the darkness. Grief and sadness happen, so as to enhance the soul’s inner growth to make us stronger. Suffering or adversity (A broken heart), are rather merits in disguise. The intellect has been always cautious and advises, ‘Beware too much ecstasy,’ whereas Love says, ‘Oh, never mind! Take the plunge!’ Intelligence does not easily break down, whereas Love can effortlessly reduce it to rubble. Intellect ties people in knots and risks nothing, but love dissolves all tangles and risks everything. Intellect and Love are made of different materials.
