Don’t Go Back to Sleep
The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you;
Don’t go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want;
Don’t go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don’t go back to sleep.
- Rumi

Kambiz
Shiva-Shakti: Hindu. The Sacred Marriage of Lady and Lord,
depicts a condition of enlightenment where male and female human principles,
anima and animus, yin and yang, are perfectly combined in a balanced way.
The two together symbolizes the union of the male and female aspects which leads to liberation and enlightenment.
