The Slowness

Slowly,
Slowly,
Do not rush the unfolding of your soul.
Everything takes time to bloom.

—Unattributed. 

Anyone know from where this came? I have a gut feeling it may be from either some Sanskrit text or a poet like Rumi.

A vastly more poetic version of my old technology industry inspired musing: "I don't want to do more in less time. I want to do less in more time."
