In this episode of we journey into the heart of the 13th-century Persian poet and Sufi mystic, Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Balkhi.
Known simply as Rumi, his profound words have transcended time and geography to touch the souls of people across the world. We explore his early life in Balkh, his transformative encounter with Shams-e Tabrizi, and how his writings, from the enchanting 'Masnavi' to the deeply personal 'Divan-e Shams-e Tabrizi', continue to illuminate the path of love, mysticism, and understanding.
This episode is a tribute to Rumi's extraordinary life, his enduring wisdom, and his capacity to guide us towards the unity of existence and the joy of the soul.
