Three of Swords Quotes
I want to share a few quotes that reflect spiritual aspects of the Three of Swords:
”A wound is the place where the Light enters you.” — Rumi
“We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey.” — Kenji Miyazawa
“There is no way to get the healing without knowing what the wound is.” — Alice Walker
“The essence of love and compassion is understanding, the ability to recognize the physical, material, and psychological suffering of others, to put ourselves ‘inside the skin’ of the other. We ‘go inside’ their body, feelings, and mental formations, and witness for ourselves their suffering. Shallow observation as an outsider is not enough to see their suffering. We must become one with the subject of our observation. When we are in contact with another’s suffering, a feeling of compassion is born in us. Compassion means, literally, ‘to suffer with.’” —Thich Nhat Hanh
