One of Rumi’s most famous poems is The Guest House, which is often recited in mindfulness circles. It is a reminder not to resist the thoughts and emotions passing through you, but to meet them with courage, warmth, and respect. The poem begins with these lines:

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.
