📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK

How can deep feelings of loss and inner wounds become the very opening through which light enters us?

📝ONGO's Reflection

Reading the work of Rumi, Persia's greatest mystic poet, I came to understand that a wound is not merely pain. When I first met his line—"The wound is the place where the Light enters you"—it felt as though the grief I had buried for so long was being gently consoled. This book sings that the suffering and lack we endure can become the greatest blessing for the growth of the soul. When life feels as though it is crumbling beneath me, I often walk into this ancient forest of wisdom.
