Touched by Rumi: October 2019
/Rumi has the ability to reach people of all backgrounds, ages, religions, and more. His wisdom sparks us to look within and influences us to view ourselves and the world in a different way. In this section of our Monthly Newsletter we ask people to show us how Rumi has affected them and their way of thinking.
“Fariba said, “Rumi says everything comes - the whole world is talking to us, and we are not listening. So deep listening is the first step of this culture of what he is teaching.” And I think that is where not just my generation, but previous generations all fall flat. We are not listening. To each other, to ourselves, or to the world. There should really be an emphasis on this idea that the entire world is talking to us and we must stop to listen in order to grow.””
