A Favorite Quote from a New Dimensions Guest : Guy Finley

POSTED March 2, 2022 IN
Archived Inspirational Quotes

 

The antidote is in the venom.
                                          Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi, Persian Poet

“This is one of my all time favorite quotes and has been a guide for me for many years and it goes to the heart of my most recent book on relationship. Everything that we need to discover about ourselves in order to become more true and more loving human beings is right there in the very moment where everything about us doesn’t feel loving and wants nothing to do with those who have brought up those feelings in us. The venom of the moment holds the antidote because everything that we need to see about ourselves is in the moment when we are struck by the insensitive comment, when we are suddenly snapped aware because someone has said something deleterious about us. If we can learn to be present in those moments then we’ll start to understand the antidote isn’t to fix you, the antidote is to change the part of our self that can be struck and made negative or venomous by anything.”Guy Finley
