Hafiz says:

When the mind is consumed with remembrance something divine happens to the heart that shapes the hand and tongue and eye into the word Love. 

 

On this Path of Love where so much in life seems to call us away from our true nature, the practice of Remembrance is a key to staying conscious and mindful in thought, speech and action.  When we think about what will actually be nourishing to our spirit on a daily basis we realise how underfed it is through the choices we make that tend to be governed by the personality self.
Our Friend will surely inspire us all with this beautiful theme.  How to expand our bliss of recognition and remembrance throughout each day, and then noticing the delight of our spirit when we choose such divine nourishment for our inner being.
