Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Uplifting...Honoring the great Sufi tradition, Coleman Barks translates Rumi in a way that anyone with a spiritual side can appreciate. I particularly appreciate this edition for Barks' editorial comments and for the volume of poetry. A great introduction to Rumi and Sufism. Rating:  - You may enjoy these booksIf you are a deep material reader then you will really enjoy Rumi & Self Psychology (Psychology of Tranquility) and Sara's Therapy: A Way to Purity. These books are unique, easy to read, full of information, and just amazing; and you can not put them down. Rating: - Rumi A little Rumi every day is very good for the soul. This English version of Rumi's poetry captures the essence of the original Farsi text. Rating: - Daily Rumi ReadingsEach day's reading has multiple levels to try to comprehend. Lots of fodder for thought and discussion. It would be fun to sit down at dinner each night and have a family discussion about that day's poem. Rating: - A Year With Rumi: Daily ReadingsI love this book - Coleman Barks does a wonderful job of translating Rumi's poems. I am enjoying working my way through the year!
