A collection of Rumi's best, most beloved poetry--presented in one pocket-sized volume for on-the-go inspiration

The renowned Persian Sufi mystic Mevlâna Jalâluddin Rumi (1207-1273) is one of the most widely read poets in the world today. His compassionate insight into the nature of human existence, his joyful humor, his deep wisdom, and his ecstatic songs of divine union have endeared him to readers for more than seven hundred years. Selected from his most-loved works, this book contains the very best of Rumi's poetry in superb translation. By turns soaring, inspiring, lyrical, entertaining, and always full of profound guidance, Rumi's transcendent words penetrate to the very depths of one's heart, offering eloquent expression for what lies there.

The Shambhala Pocket Library is a collection of short, portable teachings from notable figures across religious traditions and classic texts. The covers in this series are rendered by Colorado artist Robert Spellman. The books in this collection distill the wisdom and heart of the work Shambhala Publications has published over 50 years into a compact format that is collectible, reader-friendly, and applicable to everyday life.

About Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi

Known in the West simply as Rumi, Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi (1207–1273) was a Persian poet and Sufi mystic. He was born at Balkh, in what is now Afghanistan. His father, the scholar and theologian Baha' al-Din-e Valad, was summoned in 1229 to teach in the Seljuk capital of Konya, and Rumi eventually took over the post. Meeting the mystic Shams al-Din Tabrizi in 1244 changed his work entirely; after Shams disappeared in 1248 he composed the Divan-e Shams-e Tabrizi, more than forty thousand verses, and dictated the 64,000 lines of the Masnavi-ye Ma'navi to the scribe Husam Chelebi. He died at Konya in December 1273. He wrote in Persian; the volumes here are modern English translations.
