Dr. Asoka JinadasaLove dissolves the separation between ‘you’ and ‘me’.
About This Quote
In this quote, Rumi talks about how love can be used to dissolve the separation between “you” and “me.” If you have been hurt or rejected by someone, then being hurt or rejected by someone else is a bit easier to deal with. However, if a person has truly loved another, then they will still love them even after being hurt by the other person. Imagine a doctor who has been helping his patient for a long time. Then, one day, he finds out that his patient has been receiving medical treatment from another doctor.
The doctor feels as if his patient has been betrayed and now knows that he has been used as a tool for the other doctor to succeed. In this case, the doctor would be upset that his patient had been hurt by his actions.
