"That which God said to the rose, and caused it to laugh in full-blown beauty, He said to my heart, and made it a hundred times more beautiful." — Rumi

Rumi believed that  that music, dance and poetry were a path for reaching God. I am adding  scents to my spiritual path. Last night, or better; early this morning,  I dapped some rose otto on my chest, under my nose and on my crown chakra. It was such a calming and soothing feeling which instead of lulling me to sleep, it roused my heart with longing for the divine. I laid awake and listened to the fragrant  stillness.
