The Forbidden Rumi
The first collection of poems translated into English from the forbidden volume of the Divan of Rumi • Presents Rumi’s most heretical and free-form poems • Includes introductions and commentary that provide both 13th-century context and modern interpretation After his overwhelming and life-altering encounters with Shams of Tabriz, Rumi, the great thirteenth-century mystic, poet, and originator of the whirling dervishes, let go of many of the precepts of formal religion, insisting that only a complete personal dissolving into the larger energies of God could provide the satisfaction that the heart so desperately seeks. He began to speak spontaneously in the language of poetry, and his f...

Crazy As We Are

In Crazy As We Are he presents 128 previously untranslated quatrains direct from the Farsi. Dr. Nevit Ergin is a retired surgeon who practiced for more than thirty years. He has been a student of Sufism for more than fifty years, and has published sixteen volumes of Rumi's Divan-i-Kebir. He lives in San Mateo, California.

The Rubais of Rumi
The first English translation of the rubais of Rumi • Presents 233 of the most evocative of Rumi’s 1,700 rubais • Shows that the mystical embrace is the way to directly experience the Divine Rumi is well known for the over 44,000 verses that appear in a 23-volume collection called the Divan-i Kebir. Yet Rumi also composed 1,700 rubais, short aphorisms and observations, whose depth and message belie their brevity. The form of rubais first became well known through the 11th-century collection The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. But unlike Khayyam, who like most poets would sit and carefully craft each word, Rumi would compose and speak his poems through the spontaneous “language of poetry”...

Divan-i Kebir Meter 8b
With these two most recent volumes of Divan-I Kebir, we continue to receive a wealth of clear, beautiful new verses from Rumi -- possibly the greatest Persian poet and mystic of all time. Rumi's love of God breathes through his earthy imagery just as strongly in Meters 8a and 8b of the Divan as they do in the previously published Meters (1 through 7) from translator Ergin. Only a short read of these new verses confirms Rumi's awe-inspiring ability to catch the reader and release him into reality outside of the time and space perception. This is the first time that any of these verses have been available in English.
