Summary, etc. | At the age of thirty-three, jalal al-Din Rumi (1207-1273) held a responsible position as an eminent Islamic scholar in Konia, which <br/>today is known as Turkey. His lectures enjoyed audiences of kings, princes and viziers. At the age of thirty-eight, Rumi abandoned his life of fame and conventional values in order to decipher his real Self. What he found on that path produced one of the greatest Moslem mystics who ever lived. He became Rumi the mystic, poet, the ecstatic dancer, whose immense love of life pervaded every line he wrote, every poem he made, everyone of his actions. <br/><br/>A. Reza Arasteh presents in this book a systematic study of Rumi's rebirth into a total being. By studying the elements of Persian culture, as well as the unique writings of Rumi, Dr Arasteh reveals the characteristics of maturity, the qualities of final integration in identity, health, and happiness that underlie Rumi's life and work. In his Preface, Erich Fromm points out another aspect of this study's particular value to contemporary man: <br/><br/>'The author has enriched the cultural life of the English-speaking world by presenting the ideas and personality of one of the greatest humanists in such a vivid scholarly fashion, and to emphasize at the same time those ideas which are germane to modern thought.' |
