The term that comes to mind in Arabic is Zaahid (one who detaches from the world). Not so much eschewing material things, but as the Islamic Sages would say it's "Being able to hold the world in your hands and not in your heart."
Thank you for sharing, Bruce. It calls us to a life of trust and grace. Always trusting that we are exactly where we are meant to be. And the grace that comes undeservedly and unsought, that reveals, "gives us" what we desire without having to find it outside ourselves. Simply beautiful 🌼
