Jungian mentor

Home base for many of us -- along with Jung -- only recently did I appreciate who came first along this road! Rumi, as Muslim mystic, also founded the Whirling Dervish branch of Sufism -- for men AND women, we now know -- in Konya, Turkey. (it's worth the trip)

This is an amazing work and translation. I have read a couple other translations, though none compare to this. Even though capturing the essence of the original Rumi is nigh impossible, this is the wine that is least diluted.
