• Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
    Jun 16 2025

    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,

    There is a field. I'll meet you there.

    When the soul lies down in that grass,

    The world is too full to talk about.

    Ideas, language, even the phrase each other

    Doesn't make any sense.


    The phrase "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing" is a famous line from a poem by the 13th-century Persian poet, Rumi. It suggests a space beyond moral judgments and dualistic thinking, where a deeper connection with oneself and others can be found. Specifically, the full line, "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there," implies a place of unity and understanding that transcends conventional notions of good and bad.

    This being human is a guest house.
    Every morning a new arrival.
    A joy, a depression, a meanness,
    some momentary awareness comes
    As an unexpected visitor.

    There's courage involved if you want
    to become truth.

    I swear, since seeing Your face,
    the whole world is fraud and fantasy
    The garden is bewildered as to what is leaf
    or blossom. The distracted birds
    can't distinguish the birdseed from the snare.

    I have been tricked by flying too close
    to what I thought I loved.
    Now the candleflame is out, the wine spilled,
    and the lovers have withdrawn
