A breathtaking new collection of translations of poems by Rumi, one
of the world's most loved mystical teachers and bestselling poets.
Beautifully packaged and illustrated with paintings and Persian
calligraphy, this is an ideal gift. Jalal-uddin Rumi was born in
what is now Afghanistan in 1207. His poetry has inspired
generations of spiritual seekers, both from his own Sufi school and
well beyond. His poems speak to the seeker and the lover in all of
us. He is one of the world's most revered poets and spiritual
teachers, and is currently the bestselling poet in America. Rumi is
one of the greatest mystic poets of all time. His unique message of
love speaks directly to the heart and transcends the boundaries of
language and time. These poems, carefully selected from the Divan
of Shams (Rumi's collection of 3,000 poems), speak powerfully to
the seeker and lover in all of us. These beautiful, new
translations from the original Persian, by the authors of Rumi:
Whispers of the Beloved, are arranged thematically and lead us
through the intricacies of love, longing and the quest for truth.
Each section is accompanied by Persian calligraphy of several of
the poems, as well as stunning, evocative paintings by Azima Melita
Kolin, reproduced in full colour, which are inspired by the poems
and have been specially commissioned for the book.
Think of a question - any question! (okay, maybe not a question
like "what was the name of my physics teacher?"). Then turn to a
page, and experience the magic... the magic of F**k It. We all have
questions. And the bestselling F**k It books have provided answers
to hundreds of thousands of people around the world. The F**k It
philosophy - of not worrying so much, of letting go more, of caring
less what others think and doing your own thing - has provided
answers that work in real life, every day.In F**k It Is the Answer,
John C. Parkin adds another element to the F**k It mix: by inviting
you to ask your question, and then turn randomly to a page that
offers you a F**k It-style answer, he recruits the magical powers
of your own unconscious... or 'fate'... or 'spirit'... or whatever
it is that seems to guide us to the correct answers when we allow
it. So this book is about 'allowing it'. Just as F**k It is about
'allowing it' - relaxing, trusting, going with the flow, and
allowing the magic to happen. This book is F**k It Squared: taking
the powerful wisdom of F**k It, and then recruiting whatever
worldly or unworldly magic it is that makes this work.Make no
mistake though: work it does.So... ask your question, and turn to a
page.
Getting rich is not just about luck; happiness is not just a trait we are born with. These aspirations may seem out of reach, but building wealth and being happy are skills we can learn.
So what are these skills, and how do we learn them? What are the principles that should guide our efforts? What does progress really look like?
