About this listen
RUMI: THE BELOVED IS YOU by longtime Rumi translator and author, Shahram Shiva, offers the reader a uniquely compiled collection of the most powerful and memorable poems and quotes of Rumi. This very special selection presents a cross section of the best examples from various themes that Rumi chose to express his teachings and share his unique spiritual growth process.
Rumi: The Beloved is You includes exceptional quotes, quatrains and odes. Shahram Shiva has been sharing Rumi with the world for more than 30 years. He began translating Rumi quite extemporaneously, “like it was an old habit,” in New York City when he was in his early 20’s. He is the founder of Rumi Network and one of the original popularizers of Rumi. The Rumi we love today is based on the last 25 years of Rumi’s life. During that period came an outpouring of many thousands of incredibly concise and thoughtful poems on varied topics.
Rumi: The Beloved is You represents some of Shahram Shiva’s all-time favorite poems and quotes. Rumi’s poems cover practically every possible theme. These themes include, deeply philosophical and mystical thoughts, drunken revelries, anti-authoritarian outbursts, light-hearted historical tales, simple life teachings, passionate love stories and more. Rumi was so prolific and adapt at creating verse that he was able to speak poetry at will.
Rumi: The Beloved is You categorizes the poems and quotes in 5 sections.
1. Rumi’s Most Loved Mystical and Spiritual Poems.
2. The Power of Love. The Passionate Poems.
3. The Cult of the Tavern. The Drunken Poems.
4. The Ascended Master. The Anti-Establishment Poems.
5. Deep Rumi, For Mystics in Training Only.

Story
This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

AI Narrator was not my favorite
The worst part of this otherwise wonderful book was the AI generated narrator. I found the lack of emotion in the voice to be robotic and somewhat distracting from the beautiful poetry of both Rumi and Shiram Shiva.

Hard Listen
It’s hard to listen to poetry read by a computer. The poems run together, unless one pays very close attention, since the inflections don’t provide the subtle space for delineation. Alternating voices, say from male to female, on alternate poems would make this a much improved listen. The content is there, just not the delivery.
