Here in Indonesia, we teach psychology of tasawwuf in psychology program. Rumi is the most important figure and we explore his work. However, lacking of knowledge in tasawwuf as part Islamic science is our weakness. This video (and your other videos) help a alot! Thank you so much. I hope you can cover more topics in tasawwuf which are relatable for modern people, their needs and issues. For example, we use Rumi's poetry "Guest House" to help ease depression/ emotional pain, give constructive meaning to suffering, and repair broken relationship with God. Many other poetries of Rumi have similar potential.

As you mentioned a couple of times. Translation of His works is hard. The Persian language is like an onion, it has many layers especially when it comes to poetry. Each word can mean differently based on the context. His work is also very hard to be digested by the native people. However, you did a great job. But, as Molavai says: If you can not drink the whole ocean; you may taste it at your capacity. This might be the best explanation for those people who are seeking to find the true Molavi.

The most outstanding characteristic of Rumi is his independence of thinking. When you read him in Persian, in every story he recounts, you grasp his profound philosophical teachings. In his works, one finds philosophical ideas that were expressed by philosophers like Kant, Hegel... several centuries after Rumi; this is astonishing. This gem still remains hidden for most of the non-Persian speakers. In France, Leili Anvar has undertaken a complete translation with commentary of the Mathnavi, this will reveal to the world this genius of all time.

I adore the friendship between Shams and Rumi. As humans we can do that for one another, expand on our internal dialogs, tease out, vet out, get lost in the thought, bringing us ever closer to God. What a practice of devotion, to see God in each other in such a way.

@SwiggityPeanut 7 місяців тому
@@is-nessWhile I dont disagree that there are multiple paths to the top of the mountain to Rumi specifically the top of the mountain was Jannah, heaven in Islam. Specifically Jannat-al-Firdaus, the closest level of heaven to the Creator. The intent is indistinguishable from tasawwuf and Qur'anic spirituality. To understand his work beyond superficial similiarities one would need to have at least a working knowledge of his tradition. To Rumi, a Muslim practicing tasawwuf, detachment is not the same as the concept of detachment/nonattachment is to a Hindu, Daoist, Jainist or Buddhist- on a fundamental level. Of the more well known practices, the Dao would be the most similiar to tasawwuf (the Daoists' focus on being in harmony with the Tao is somewhat similiar) but they still have deep differences at the core. The end goals of these are not the end goals of tasawwuf. It is true, to someone practicing detachment it appears similiar in scope. However, saying "read him closely and you will hear him say this too" is subjectively based on your experience. Nothing wrong with that of course, just pointing out that unless you have read Rumis' work (or other Sufi scholar poets, especially around his time period) in full, his scholarly work that fuses the academic portion of tasawwuf with the spiritual portion, then you aren't getting the full picture. Read him closely with an intimate understanding of his background and you will hear that what he is saying is deeply intertwined with his Islamic tasawwuf tradition, because to Rumi detachment and dissolution of ego is inseperable from the tradition and its beliefs. He himself would disagree with your statement while still commending your spiritual practice. If he had the opportunity to study other spiritual practices that place an emphasis on nonattachment, he would likely say that they were all means to attain the top but that they fall short.

Surprisingly, few among us tend to overlook the fact that even though Rumi was born and raised within the Islamic tradition, his teachings did not confine him to promoting unity solely among Muslims. Instead, his writings consistently emphasize unity, discouraging divisions of any sort, and acting as a bridge between the Creator and His creation which includes every human being. Just as a medical book written by a Christian isn't meant exclusively for Christian medical students, it's incorrect to label Rumi's writings as purely Islamic. His teachings cater to all who seek spiritual guidance, regardless of their religious or philosophical background. Though I was born to Sunni Muslim parents, my journey in Tasawuf has broadened my horizons, allowing me to study scriptures from various religions. This has enabled me to overlook "Form" and rather focus on "Meaning" thus connecting me with spiritual seekers regardless of their religious affiliations or ethnic backgrounds.

In his verse “I was raw, I got cooked, I burned” “Xãm bodam, poxte shodam, suxtam” it has got way more in itself than just word for word translation. In Persian, to be raw is when you have just come of age, you are strong, grown and powerful but you don’t have the mental strength to avoid the consequences of your actions or power, you hurt you or those around you unintentionally. To be cooked is when you are wise enough to consider the consequences of your actions, when you don’t do anything without considering the result. To be burning in other words means restlessness, to be burning to achieve something precious, or to dedicate all you got for a noble cause. So if you know the context of those words and the deeper meaning of what Rumi says just one verse of his poem get you thinking for a long time and it is what makes Rumi “Rumi”.

Okay. I'm an atheistic Westerner. But I too appreciate the timeless and transcendental worth of Rumi's poetry. We are all in this together, no matter what we believe. Thanks for another great video. Lunch is on me if you're ever in Vienna. Cheer from sunny Austria, Scott

Hi Scott you as an atheist how do you appreciate anything or you know you appreciate it? your brain is nothing but an organ with chemical reactions that delude itself into having meaning when there's non but mere chemical reactions. please take the leap of faith soon from 8th floor. Also, how did you come to the conclusion that there's no God when you are moral subjectivsit and have no logic?

his poetry is so profound because rumi was a highly awakened being. a lot of his poetry is about enlightenment and awakening. after awakening, you shed your old practices, rituals, religion and old identity - he is not just a sufi or just a muslim anymore, he is beyond all of those worldly concepts. that's why the mass appeal.

I tried to find Him on the Christian Cross, but He was not there; I went to the Temple of the Hindus and to the pagodas, but I could not find a trace of Him anywhere. I searched on the mountains and in the valley and across the deserts, but neither in the heights nor in the depths was I able to find Him. I went to the Kaaba in Mecca, but He was not there either. I questioned the scholars and the philosophers but He was beyond their understanding. I then looked into my heart and it was there where He dwelled that I saw Him; He is no where else to be found, for words are useless and life defies definition. ~ Jalal Uddin Rumi.
