. Sohbet: Who You Talking To?
For Rumi the appearance of formal beauty comes as a natu-
ral response to being spoken to. The rose opens because it
has heard something. The cypress grows strong and
straight because a love-secret is being whispered. Elegance
in language arrives in response. Before creation there was a
question, “Am I not your lord?” The simultaneous YES!
that came is why we are here at all in the midst of three
hundred billion galaxies.
I have a friend who, when she wants to know who I am
seeing, who I am in love with, asks, Who you talking to? The
exchange of deep friendship makes a fine entrance into
love and trust, into the mysterious action that moves
through the eyes, the voice, the heart.
Rumi wonders, Can you see these escapees, the ones who have
gotten free of their personalities and into the truer self? He celebrates
the freedom of those escapees, how their friendship dis-
solves into everything: what anybody says, whatever hap-
pens.
