Come To The Secret Garden: Sufi Tales of Wisdom (1994)
“
Look at yourself. You came into this world, but what you have to realize is that you came from Him and you must return to Him. The light within you has to merge with that One Light. Then the dark show of life will disappear. My love you, my children. This is the most important thing to understand in life.
— Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
