RUMI WISDOM
"You're looking at the waves but ignoring the sea." Rumi
Find a year's worth of daily inspiration from the great Sufi master, Mevlana Jalal al-Din Rumi.
Rumi was a religious teacher who taught that all spiritual philosophies are hopelessly inadequate. A sophisticated scholar who delighted in colloquial jokes. A teetotaler who wrote enthusiastically about drunkenness. A narrator of fables who saw himself as a fictional character. Today Rumi is described as the greatest of all mystical poets. His words amuse, but they also have hidden meanings. He speaks with a timeless voice, offering perennial wisdom as relevant now as it was in 1 3th-century Turkey.
Follow the seasons of the year on your journey of spiritual evolution. Progress as you ore introduced to the idea of the spiritual quest in the spring. During the summer, celebrate the intoxicating highs of an encounter with the beloved, and face the harsh reality of separation from God through the days in the fall. Learn about life in death and drown in an ocean of love when it becomes winter.
Whether you look at the wisdom featured each day search for moments that are meaningful to you, or read this book in its entirety again and again, you'll be touched every time you let Rumi into your heart.
