There is No Real Certainty Until You Burn

"Don't abide in borrowed certainty. There is no real certainty until you burn; if you wish for this, sit down in the fire."
Jalaluddin Rumi
"Certainty" in spiritual matters comes from two types of fire: the flaming of the ego or small-self, which enables our identity to expand into the infinite, and a passionate love, which melts the opposites of life into ONE.
