The key to enlightenment is found within from "summary" of Open Secret by Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī (Maulana)
Within each of us lies the potential for enlightenment, a treasure waiting to be discovered. This treasure is not hidden in some distant land or locked away in a vault; it is right here, within us. We need not search outside ourselves for the key to enlightenment, for it is already in our possession. The journey to enlightenment is not about acquiring something new, but rather about uncovering what has always been there. It is a process of looking within, of delving deep into the depths of our being to unearth the truth that lies at our core. This truth is not something that can be taught or learned from others; it must be experienced firsthand. In our quest for enlightenment, we must turn our gaze inward and listen to the whispers of our own soul. We must quiet the noise of the outside world and tune into the still, small voice within us. It is this voice that holds the key to unlocking the mysteries of existence, the answers to life's deepest questions. As we journey within, we may encounter obstacles and challenges along the way. These obstacles are not meant to deter us, but rather to test our resolve and strengthen our faith. They are opportunities for growth and self-discovery, guiding us closer to the truth that lies within.- But a journey to be embraced. It is a continual process of self-discovery and self-realization, a path of transformation and awakening. The key to enlightenment is not found in the external world, but within the depths of our own being. It is a journey of the soul, a return to our true essence, a homecoming to the divine spark that resides within us all.
