Book Description

June 16, 2005 Spiritual Masters. East and West Series
There are almost no authoratative books readily available for the general reader that provide, in clear and accessible language, an introduction to the spiritual perspective illuminating Rumi's magical poetry. In this beautifully illustrated work, William C. Chittick, a leading scholar of Sufism and Rumi, opens doors that give us access to the inner sanctum of Rummi's thought.

5.0 out of 5 stars Illustrated Rumi April 16, 2009
Format:Paperback
This is an outstanding overview of the philosophy of Rumi and Sufism generally. It shows how Rumi's views are consistent with other thinkers such as Ibn Arabi. It is excellent on Sufi concepts of Shahadah, the relation between Shariah and Tariqah, theodicy or the question of evil, the universal man and the fallen man, the union with God and the Nafs or ego-carnal self which prevents man from seeing his true nature. The pictures are beautiful and include illustrations from Rumi's life. Chittick was a student of Seyyed Hossein Nasr who writes the introduction.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional January 8, 2013
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
A beautiful first book of introduction to the heart--and soul--of Sufism, from an authority. We purchased two copies; one to keep, to replace an earlier gift giving.
