Echoes from the Cave of Hira : A Spiritual Reunion

In the garden of time, where seasons weave their tapestry, I had wandered long and far, each step a dance of longing, each moment a sigh for the past. A decade or more, the sands of time sifted through the fingers of my soul, and my heart, like a nightingale, sang songs of remembrance and yearning for the one who had once guided my spirit.

In the realm of the unseen, where hearts are connected beyond the veil of the physical, I found a kindred soul, a student of the same light, a fellow traveler on the path. We met, and each time, words fluttered like hesitant butterflies, never quite landing on the question my heart carried. Days turned into years, and I feared my teacher, the guiding star of my inner sky, had set beyond the horizon of this world.

Yet, in a moment of divine orchestration, as the dervish’s whirl aligns with the rhythm of the cosmos, I found myself once more at the threshold of wisdom. The student, a mirror reflecting the light of my teacher, shared with me the sacred whispers, the dhikr that bridges hearts and souls. In that sacred space, our consciousness intertwined, and I felt the echo of my teacher’s presence as if the past and present were but two sides of the same coin.

As I awaited the resonance of his voice, the anticipation was a river of hope, and when the sound finally touched my ears, it was as if the heavens had opened, and tears of joy cascaded from the wellspring of my heart. In that instant, I was found, and my teacher was found. The circle of guidance and love was complete once more.

Oh, beloved teacher, know that even as time and distance sought to separate us, the bond of the heart, the link of the soul, remained unbroken. In the garden of our spirits, where the flowers of wisdom bloom eternally, I have found you again. Your light continues to illuminate my path, and your voice is the melody that guides my steps.

May we always meet in the space where the divine touches the earthly, where the song of the soul is never silenced, and where the dance of love and wisdom is eternal.
