"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Inside.


Thinking gives off smoke to prove the existence of fire. 
A mystic sits inside the burning. 
There are wonderful shapes in rising smoke that imagination loves to watch. 
But it's a mistake to leave the fire for that filmy sight. 
Stay here at the flame's core. 

Rumi
