When a raindrop joins the ocean, is it lost, or is it found?

     I watched the very interesting and well-done movie, "Victoria and Abdul,"  which is based on true events.
    It reminded me of how much I like the poetry of Rumi. Here is one of his quotes, which was used in the movie.

“Listen, O drop, give yourself up without regret,
and in exchange gain the Ocean.
Listen, O drop, bestow upon yourself this honor,
and in the arms of the Sea be secure.
Who indeed should be so fortunate?
An Ocean wooing a drop!
In God's name, in God's name, sell and buy at once!
Give a drop, and take this Sea full of pearls.”

― Jalaluddin Mevlana Rumi
