Jalāl ad-Dīn ar-Rūmī
born , c. September 30, 1207, Balkh, Ghūrid empire [now in Afghanistan]
died December 17, 1273
also called by the honorific Mawlānā the greatest Ṣūfī mystic and poet in the Persian language, famous for his lyrics and for his didactic epic Mathnavī-ye Maʿnavī (“Spiritual Couplets”), which widely influenced Muslim mystical thought and literature. Rūmī's influence on Turkish cultural life can scarcely be overstated. After his death, his disciples were organized as the Mawlawīyah order, called in the West the Whirling Dervishes.

dear Gerhard,if I am correctly understand your feedback,the strange symbol says what is equivalent to:your lordship: in English,the lower sign is one line of poem,it is in Arabic Turkish or Iranian I do not know,the only three words that I understood are the Mecca place of lovers,my best regards,
Saad.

Afwan sadeek. Yes, man is projecting his own hidden shadow in himself on fellow humans. We are so limited to see the real world since our programming and experiences form us. We have become in order not to feel our pain and for that we blame others.
Peace can only begin by admitting our pain is our pain and not caused by others.
Why religious wars when there is only one God/allah and only one reality. Why military wars when after victory ( ... _ the community collapses. Why hunger when people fly in airplanes to see the hungry people.
Is it because we think we are not good enough and need enemies to approve ourselves ?
اتمنى لكم عطلة نهاية الاسبوع غرامة يا عزيزي ، الحضنات والقبل
