Amazing book; I would definitely recommend this book for ...By SavriAmazing book; I would definitely recommend this book for those who want to know more about Mavlono.The way how the author used words and brought examples from Mavlono's life; teachings are outstanding.I can not even express myself...because one should read it by him/herself.13 of 13 people found the following review helpful. Rumi and SufismBy Sami S. Pala"In this volume we encounter Rumi living through the words of a contemporary Mevlevi Shaykh; Sefik Can.Shaykh Can's presentation of the biography and poetry of this passionate; God-absorbed Rumi reminds us of that message of love; acceptance of diversity; and self-transcendence that is the true essence of Islam. Here we meet Rumi as Sufi; as Muslim; but above all as lover of God expressed in the love of humanity."Marcia K. HermansenProfessor of Islamic StudiesLoyola University; Chicago"12 of 12 people found the following review helpful. Not only the ritual; but the soul behind it.By A. IdilThis book is written by Sefik Can; whom devoted his life to Mevlevi tradition. Foreword is by Fethullah Gulen; who is a Turkish scholar known by his moderate ideas in and outside Turkey. Translated by Zeki Saritoprak; a Theology professor in John Carroll University. It seems the best combination to learn the real Rumi.
