A breathtaking new collection of translations of poems by Rumi, one
of the world's most loved mystical teachers. Beautifully

Rumi is appropriately described as "the sun that warms and
transforms hearts, attracting people from all creeds, classes and
religions.
Rumi, born 1207, is today thought of being a Persian mystic and
poet and is closely identified with Sufism and Sufi mysticism. This
Sufism being a mysticism within Islam where devotees sought a
mystical union with God.
Rumi had taught that "Muslims, Christians, Jews, and Zoroastrians

drawn from five faith backgrounds followed his funeral bier. His
mausoleum, the Green Dome in Konya, is today a place of pilgrimage
for many thousands.
