Tales of Mystic Meaning - (Selections from the Mathnawi of Jalal ud Din Rumi)

What is the secret behind the eternal appeal of Rumi's stories? Tales of Mystic Meaning offers a direct path into the heart of the great poet's wisdom. This volume presents the most important and enchanting stories from Rumi's colossal Mathnawi, expertly selected and translated by the legendary scholar Reynold A. Nicholson, making the profound depths of Sufi philosophy accessible to every seeker.

Experience Rumi as He Was Meant to Be Heard
Nicholson was uniquely gifted - a poet-scholar whose translations combine exact scholarship with notable literary grace. He preserves the lively, semi-colloquial style of the original Persian: the witty dialogue, the humorous observations on human nature, and the sudden, piercing insights that transform simple tales into guides for the soul. This is not a dry academic text; it is Rumi brought to life in English.

Your Gateway to Universal Wisdom
Each tale in this collection explores life's eternal questions with a "light touch" that contemplates "the hidden depths beneath." Rumi's teaching - that all things emanate from God and journey back to Him - is universal. Through stories of lovers, kings, beggars, and animals, he reveals the mystic meaning hidden within our everyday struggles and joys.
