Napo’o ‘ana o ka la ~ Sunset Maui Hawai’i
Sun in Sacred Poetry
“The sun, like the moon, is often used in sacred poetry as a metaphor for the experience of enilghtenment. But, unlike the moon, the sun is steady, unchanging, unlimited.
The sun is unbounded, divine Awareness. It is that which shines continuously, regardless of how much light the individual consciousness (the moon) recognizes and reflects.
In this sense, the sun is often recognized as a metaphor for God (and in the West, Christ), that aspect of the Divine that is eternal and constant. The moon, on the other hand, represents individual (reflected) consciousness and the full moon represents the enlightened individual consciousness.”
“We are the guardians of His Beauty
We are the protectors Of the Sun.
There is only one reason We have followed God into this world:
To encourage laughter, freedom, dance And love.
Let a noble cry inside of you speak to me
Saying, “Hafiz, Don’t just sit there on the moon tonight Doing nothing –
Help unfurl my heart into the Friend’s Mind,
Help, Old Man, to heal my wounded wings!”
We are the companions of His Beauty
We are the guardians Of Truth.
Every man, plant and creature in Existence,
Every woman, child, vein and note Is a servant of our Beloved –
A harbinger of joy,
The harbinger of Light.” ~ by Hafiz from
