Overview
This is a collection of inspirational wisdom for living a meaningful and productive life. The selection of quotations is chosen to reflect Rumiās inspiring and uplifting approach to life and address the inevitable issues that we encounter during our lifetimes.
Here, Rumi talks directly to us, just as he did to his contemporaries 800 years ago. The wisdom includes no-nonsense statements, observations, and facts, ranging from matters of the heart, to understanding human nature, to embracing the nature of the divine. The end result is an extended meditation on how to live oneās life with meaning, productivity, and kindness.
This new translation of Rumiās wisdom is fresh, contemporary, and practical. It will appeal to the many who have loved his poetry, those who need a dose of daily inspiration, spiritual seekers, and those looking for traditional Sufi wisdom.
Selections from Rumiās Little Book of Wisdom:
āPeople always fall in love with what they canāt have. They readily give up their freedom in order to own what they canāt understand; and they never fully appreciate what theyāve rightfully owned from the beginning.ā
āThere is never a moment when weāre not in love. Every hour there might be a new love: the love of sleep, love of rest, love of the harp, or simply love of beauty. When we feel enveloped by these feelings, we know weāre enveloped by Love.ā
āWhat a shame to finally reach the open sea but settle for a modest jug of water!"
