What can you tell me about The Society for Understanding Mevlana and Dr. Ergin`s work
in translating the Divan? I read a review that said it is the first translation of that
work into English by a Sufi. Have you heard of this? j.

this is quite a nicely done site. the colors and fonts you have chosen are soothing and
work well with the subject matter. i have recently come upon a group of folks who do
"dances of universal peace" with the sufi tradition at the heart. they have
often mentioned rumi as another resource. your site gave me insight. thanks much. barbara

I returned from Turkey in May. While I was at a whirling dervish ceremony in Konya last
December I read a poem of Mevlana Rumi's that I would like to find. It went something like
"if you fill your life with thorns you will live in a garden of thorns, if you fill
you life with flowers you will live in a garden of love." If you can help me track
down the complete poem, I would appreciate it.

To my knowledge Rumi had a younger son named Alaadin who was suspected of joining the
band of Rumi's followers who murdered Shams of Tabriz.

Dear Editor,
I am wondering why you are mentioning the city of Malatia as being in Armenia??? I
think, it would be more accurate to refer to as Anatolia.

Picture #9, "Enlightenment is quite well. I can identify that mans triumph as the
triumph or Sufism. The masses shall have fleeting interest only when a enlihghtening
thought is found by them. But what they have found is only the crumb that fell from the
table! for behind everything they can comprehend there are men like Rumi studying and
adding to the great knowledge and teaching only those who seek his knowledge out for
themselves!
Also, perhaps we should add the work of Omar Khayyam to this page. I believe his mind
and Rumi's are two sides of the same coin.
