Rumi in the World: August 2020

 

Rumi’s teachings invite us to an inward journey. This journey takes us from the path of duality to the path of Unity. Body, mind and soul unify only when we pay attention to the world within us. In this section, from our Monthly Newsletter, we relate Rumi and his wisdoms to the world around us — whether this means current events, culture, philosophies, and much more. We examine how his wisdoms can be used to navigate our every day and to help us understand different aspects of life…


To the glorious Shining Star, John Lewis💛


My heart sees the spirit that moves you

out of the fields, speeding toward the chaos of injustice.


Longing for a better world

my heart sees the glow of the iron cross you carry within your soul.


My heart sees the flames of your spirit, knowing

you walk hand in hand with Christ.
— Fariba Enteshari
