The Poetry of the Sufis

"Sufism had its origins in the early days of Islam and was defined by its mystical and philosophical absorption with the search for God and the love and grace of God. The striving for union with God was the ultimate Sufi goal but could not be achieved until death, so earthly life devoted itself to worship God, love mankind, respect nature and conquer the Self, severing the chains of our worldly life. Along the centuries numerous interpretations and definitions of Sufism have waxed and waned but the undeniable beauty of their verse in its myriad of forms including the musical Ghazal (love song), Masnavi (narrative) and Rubai (quatrain) always remains. Our chronological volume of the classic Sufi poets helps us understand the spiritual direction of Sufism, starting with Rabia in the 8th century through to Khwaja Ghulam Farid over a thousand years later.It is a journey of fascinating thoughts and beauty.1 - The Poetry of the Sufis - An Introduction2 - Your Hope Is My Heart by Rabia al Basri3 - In My Soul by Rabia al Basri4 - In Love by Rabia al Basri5 - The Holy Water by Rabia al Basri6 - If I Adore You by Rabia al Basri7 - Your Image Is In My Eye by Mansur Al Hallaj8 - I Do Not Cease Swimming by Mansur Al Hallaj9 - Thy Spirit Is Mingled In My Spirit by Mansur Al Hallaj10 - Awareness Is Rapture by Abdullah Ansari11 - I Came by Abdullah Ansari12 - The Rubaiyat by Omar Khayyam13 - The Walled Garden by Sanai Ghaznavi14 - All Pervading Consciousness by Farid ud-Din Attar15 - Bird Parliament or The Conference of the Birds by Farid ud-Din Attar (an Extract)16 - Why Was Adam by Farid ud-Din Attar17 - Intoxicated By the Wine of Love by Farid ud-Din Attar18 - An Ocean Without Shore by Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi19 - With My Very Own Hands by Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi20 - Fire by Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi21 - Listen O Dearly Beloved by Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi22 - You Speak of the Glory of God by Shams Tabrizi23 - I Shall Not Place You In My Heart by Shams Tabrizi24 - A Life Without Love by Shams Tabrizi25 - The Past Is an Interpretation by Shams Tabrizi26 - How Philosopher's Deceive Themselves by Jalaluddin Rumi27 - What Is To Be Done by Jalaluddin Rumi28 - Till Man Destroys Self by Jalaluddin Rumi29 - You Who Are My Soul's Repose by Jalaluddin Rumi30 - Fasting by Jalaluddin Rumi31 - Only Breath by Jalaluddin Rumi32 - Your Grief For What You've Lost Holds A Mirror by Rumi33 - Description of Humility by Saadi34 - One Body by Saadi35 - On the Excellence of Learning by Saadi36 - Who Attains the Secret of Unity.

Fifty Shades of the Mystic East

"Whilst the notion of the Mystic East and Oriental wisdom was greatly romanticised by the Victorians and others, the shadow of Colonialism has smudged the view. These great cultures are some of humanity's earliest, their works, their art some of its most daring and most accomplished. In these 50 poems across 50 poets we hope, at least in part, to rebalance our view of this subject. We begin in the 6th century BC and travel with a poet's words and eyes across India, China, Persia and many other places in between. The geography and culture may shift to different hues but the flavours, notions, musings and truths of these works bring both simplicity, majesty and beauty to these lands and peoples. Let us journey with poets such as Lao Tzu, Rumi, Mirabai, Gabirol and Guru Nanak on a journey to seek, to discover and find meaning in their verse that is so relevant to our lives today. 1 - Fifty Shades of the Mystic East - An Introduction 2 - Thiruppavi (An Extract) by Andal3 - An Ocean Without Shore by Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi4 - All Pervading Consciousness by Farid ud-Din Attar5 - Because Thou Art by Sri Aurobindo6 - Kalam - I by Sultan Bahu7 - If You Are Seeking Allah by Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai8 - Shikshashtakam by Chaitanya9 - The Value of Friendship by Confucius10 - Amrutanubhav (An Extract) by Dnyaneshwar11 - The Mockingbird by Dr Fu12 - The Song of Chess by Abraham Ibn Ezra13 - Beauty of Truth by Khwaja Ghulam Farid14 - The Prelude to Shah-Nameh (The Book of Kings) by Ferdowsi15 - A Song of Redemption by Solomon Ibn Gabirol16 - Navada Bhakti in an Untainted Heart by Gangasati17 - The Walled Garden by Sanai Ghaznavi18 - Song of the Flower by Khalil Gibran19 - The Lute Will Beg by Hafiz20 - Song of Loneliness by Jehudah Halevi21 - I Do Not Cease Swimming by Mansur Al Hallaj22 - The Power of the Pen by Samuel HaNagid23 - The Cloud on the Mountain by Alama Iqbal24 - Acceptance by Janabai25 - The Guest Is Inside You and Also Inside Me by Kabir26 - Tears Ere Thy Death by Khansa27 - All Things Pass by Lao Tzu28 - Vakh - If in the Flux of Time by Lal Ded29 - Alone Looking at the Mountain by Li Po30 - They All Err by Al-Ma'arri31 - Would a Circling Surface Vulture by Akka Mahadevi32 - Pointless It Is to Lament by Narsinh Mehta33 - Go To That Impenetrable Realm by Mirabai34 - The True Name is Like Sandalwood by Namdev35 - Tiruvasiriyam by Nammalvar36 - Dhanasri Measure by Guru Nanak37 - Dream Fable by Rabia al Basri38 - Where Shall I Go by Ramananda39 - The Name Alone Is the Truth by Ravidas40 - Only Breath by Jalaluddin Rumi41 - One Body by Saadi42 - His Ears Ringeth by Sambandar43 - Drive Me Out of My Mind by Ramprasad Sen44 - Who Attains the Secret of Unity.

15 Minutes Of Love Poems - Volume 3

"Love. What is love?The question is asked by each of us but the answer remains elusive. Dictionaries summon up many words but none fulfill. Love itself is often ethereal, felt but only seen in a glance, a look, a fleeting touch. Part of Love’s beauty is perhaps in the fact that the question never can be adequately answered; its ephemeral, a chimera of the heart and only felt. Our own experiences are unique and personal to ourselves and of little help defining it for another.Love is perhaps best expressed through poetry. As Plato said 2500 years ago “At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet”. Writing a love poem for ones’ partner is seen as the most romantic of gestures. It opens our hearts to another's. Lovers love.Here, in this volume history’s greatest poets convey thoughts, feelings and sentiments of love to you in quick (or bite-size) conversations of verse that can slip into your day and your partner's heart."

Islamic Poetry - Volume 1 - The Mystics

"Islam is one of the world’s great religions and over the centuries one of its strongest voices. For Peace. For Tolerance. For the realisation that we are all in this World together. Whatever our individual beliefs much of its teachings are wise words for us all.As Islam moved from its Arabian heartland to a wider geographic area so its core message remained albeit adapted to different lands, to different ears. Poets were ever eager to provide an alternate way of delivering the ‘message’ in beautiful verse. Their simplicity was embracing, their ornateness a humble offering to greater forces.The poems here are both profound and wide-ranging. They give verse to thoughts that still preoccupy mankind as central to their message is love and humility. Civilisations may come and go, rise and fade, but culture and its arts linger on in oral histories and the written word.The contribution of these Mystic or Sufi poets comes in many forms. They view the world in ways that give us pause to reconsider our own. Obviously, translations come in many shades and hues and even if the translator colours the original meaning of the poem, the essential truths remain.In this volume we have gathered many of the most celebrated of these ancient and classical verses by poets of the caliber and brilliance of Rumi, Kabir, Hafiz and many others. Their wise words illuminate much of what we search for."

The Book of Rumi: 105 Stories and Fables that Illumine, Delight, and Inform

"Philip Pullman, author of the His Dark Materials trilogy, has remarked that “after nourishment, shelter, and companionship, stories are the thing we need most in the world.” This new collection of Rumi stories fills that need. This fresh prose translation of 105 short teaching stories by Rumi, which form the core of the six-volume Masnavi, explores the hidden spiritual aspects of everyday experience. Rumi transforms the seemingly mundane events of daily life into profound Sufi teaching moments. These prose gems open the mystical portal to the world of the ancient mystic. These stories include well-known and popular tales such as “Angel of Death,” “The Sufi and His Cheating Wife,” “Moses and the Shepherd,” “The Chickpeas,” and “Chinese and Greek Painters” as well as the less commonly quoted parables: “The Basket Weaver,” “Mud Eaters,” and “A Sackful of Pebbles.” Rumi’s voice alternates between playful and authoritative, whether he is telling stories of ordinary lives or inviting the discerning reader to higher levels of introspection and attainment of transcendent values. Mafi’s translations delicately reflect the nuances of Rumi’s poetry while retaining the positive tone of all of Rumi’s writings, as well as the sense of suspense and drama that mark the essence of the Masnavi."
