There are moments when the mind becomes the veil, not the light.
Rumi, in this fierce and ecstatic ghazal, invites the seeker to stop thinking so much. He challenges the intellect’s constant questioning, warning that thought, if not guided by love, turns into oil feeding the fire of separation.
This is not a rejection of wisdom, but an awakening to a deeper knowing; a kind of divine intuition born in stillness, silence, and surrender. Rumi is not saying “be foolish”; he is saying, “be bewildered by God.”
