  • When the Soul Remembers

    By Choitalyk Ruman

    It is no wonder my heart aches for You
    every breath remembers its Source.
    I am but a drop longing for the ocean,
    a spark yearning for the Flame
    from which it was born.

    Your mercy is the air I breathe,
    Your light, the warmth that wakes me.
    I wander the world searching for meaning,
    only to find You waiting
    in every heartbeat of stillness.

    But what leaves me trembling in awe
    is not my love for You
    for love is all I know
    it is Your gaze upon me,
    You, the Infinite Majesty,
    stooping to touch a soul made of dust.

    How can the moon notice the shadow?
    How can eternity embrace the fleeting?
    Yet You do
    and in that impossible love
    my soul finds its home,
    its purpose,
    its peace.

  • The Sacred Story in Our Hands:Wrinkles of Wisdom and Love

    You might notice that these hands are wrinkled, perhaps marked by the passage of time. But to me, they are so much more—they are imbued with love, with wisdom, and with the stories of a life well-lived. These hands have seen the world, a world that is divine and sacred in every sense. Just as the world is sacred, so are we, each one of us. Our entire lives are dedicated to the service of something greater than ourselves—a commitment to the divine presence that guides and sustains us.

    Every crease in these hands tells a story, a chapter of a life devoted to love, to service, and to faith. These wrinkles are not merely signs of aging; they are the gentle imprints of countless acts of kindness, moments of shared wisdom, and years spent in unwavering devotion. In these lines, you can see the essence of a soul that has journeyed through life with grace and purpose, always striving to serve the greater good.

    This world we live in, with all its beauty and mystery, is a reflection of the divine. When we look around, we can see it everywhere—the sacred is in the blooming of a flower, in the rustling of the trees, and in the breaking waves of the ocean. It is in these simple, everyday moments that we find the divine essence mirrored back to us, reminding us that every part of creation holds a touch of the sacred.

    Our lives are intertwined with this sacred rhythm. We are part of something much larger than ourselves, something that calls us to serve, to love, and to live with intention. In every thought, in every action, we seek to align ourselves with this higher purpose, to honor the divine that lives within and around us.

    Our daily prayers, whether whispered in the quiet moments before dawn or spoken aloud in the hustle of daily life, are like the surrender of the waves upon the shore. They are like the gentle murmur of the trees in the wind, like the shimmering light on a field of flowers. These prayers are not just words; they are an offering, a continuous flow of our devotion and love.

    In these moments of prayer and reflection, we are reminded of our deep connection to the divine, and to each other. We realize that we are never truly alone; we are part of a sacred tapestry, woven together by the threads of love, service, and faith. Every wrinkle in these hands is a testament to this truth, a reminder that our lives are sacred, and that in every moment, we have the opportunity to touch the divine.

    So when you see these hands, know that they carry within them the essence of a life dedicated to love, to service, and to the sacred. They are a symbol of the divine presence that lives within each of us, guiding us, comforting us, and calling us to live our lives with grace and purpose.
