Description
“Friend, there’s a window that opens from heart to heart,” the 13th century Sufi poet and sage wrote. “Love is the language and the universe is the book.” Together, we’ll read dozens of passages from Rumi’s bestselling, inspirational poetry and share the ways in which the beauty and wisdom of his words moves us. We’ll also learn about Rumi’s life, his beloved Shams, and the Sufi path. Finally, we’ll watch video clips of translator Coleman Barks’ musical recitations. A collection of Rumi’s writings will be provided.
