"A certain Sufi tore his robe in grief, and the tearing brought such relief he gave the robe the name faraji,which means ripped open, happiness, or the one who brings the joy of being opened.... If you want peace and purity, tear away the coverings. This is the purpose of Emotion, to let a streaming beauty flow through you. Call it spirit, elixir, or the original agreement between yourself and God. Opening into that gives peace, a song of being empty, pure silence."- Rumi (as translated by Coleman Barks)
