Through his lyrical translations, Coleman Barks has been instrumental in bringing this exquisite literature to a remarkably wide range of readers, making the ecstatic, spiritual poetry of thirteenth-century Sufi Mystic Rumi more popular than ever.
The Essential Rumi continues to be the bestselling of all Rumi books, and the definitive selection of his beautiful, mystical poetry.

Quotes

  • Ahmet Zerenhas quoted6 years ago
    The workshop, the materials
    are what does not exist.

    Try and be a sheet of paper with nothing on it.
    Be a spot of ground where nothing is growing,
    where something might be planted,
    a seed, possibly, from the Absolute
  • miragulfemhas quoted6 years ago
    empty of worrying.
    Think of who created thought!
    Why do you stay in prison
    when the door is so wide open?
  • miragulfemhas quoted6 years ago
    said,
    “The world is a play, a children’s game,
    and you are the children.”
    God speaks the truth.
