Publisher's summary

From Madonna to Deepak Chopra, celebrities have been recording and embracing Rumi's poetry for the past two decades, creating a resurgence of interest in this 13th century Sufi mystic. This beautiful collection of 196 of his poems, previously unavailable in English and now translated by native Persian speakers Maryam Mafi and Azima Melita Kolin, will appeal to Rumi lovers everywhere who want a guidebook for their inner journey.

The poetry within will accompany those who consciously enter the inner world to explore the gardens within - out of the everyday world of dust - through an ascending hierarchy that restores one's soul to the heart, the heart to the spirit, and, in finding spirit, transcends all.

What a marvelous piece!

Rumi was such an enlightened spiritual poet. In this book he emphasized wisdom that hundreds of years later continue to be timeless and applicable to our daily lives. I highly recommend this book!

Such eloquence and beauty I have no words. My soul is filled with unspeakable love and joy. My heart is full

I love going to sleep to Rumi. It fills my dreams with beauty …peaceful and wonderful. After a day of struggle and hard work I find my nerves and worry slip away. It is one of a handful of books I prefer being read to me.

Beautiful! It is just a delight to listen to after all the demands of the day. It’s a love poem about life.

I will listen to it over and over again to fully understand it and appreciate all that Devine intended for us.
