In a few moments, I'm going to share a talk with you that I chose from the archives.

And I offer this some years back and it's on a dimension of spiritual life that I really

love exploring, which is realizing what a mystery this life is.

I wonder and a mystery.

So we'll have a short pause and then I'll begin the talk.

Thank you.

There is a story about Mola Nazardine who's considered to be a Sufi wise man and fool.

And in this story, he's invited to teach at a large temple.

And the congregation is very excited.

And the first thing he says is, who knows what I'm going to teach.

And everybody just kind of sits there and he just shrugs his shoulders and he leaves.

So they're pretty confused and upset, so they invite him again.

And again, he everybody's gathered and he says, who knows what I'm going to teach.

And everybody raises their hand.

He shrugs his shoulders and exits.

Third time, they invite him.

And he again, you know, poses the question, who knows what I'm going to teach.

And this time, half the group raises their hand.

And he says, good.
