As one of the world's most loved poets, Rumi's poems are celebrated
for their message of love and their beauty, but too often they are
stripped of their mystical and spiritual meanings. The Gift of Rumi
offers a new reading of Rumi, contextualising his work against the
broader backdrop of Islamic mysticism and adding a richness and
authenticity that is lacking in many Westernized conceptions of his
work. Author Emily O'Dell has studied Sufism both academically, in
her work and research at Harvard, Columbia, and the American
University of Beirut, and in practice, learning from a Mevlevi
master and his whirling dervishes. She weaves this expertise
throughout The Gift of Rumi, sharing a new vision of Rumi's classic
work. At the heart of Rumi's mystical poetry is the "religion of
love" which transcends all religions. Through his majestic verses
of ecstasy and longing, Rumi invites us into the religion of the
heart and guides us to our own loving inner essence. The Gifts of
Rumi gives us a key to experiencing this profound and powerful
invitation, allowing readers to meet the master in a new way.
