Pray with the Sufis!
The Sufi mystics' experience of God was down-to-earth, sometimes even crude, and always both practical and jubilant. Their religion was love-and God was their Beloved. Their relationship with the Beloved gave each moment meaning and joy.
As you pray with words inspired by Rumi and other Sufi mystics, you'll experience a new understanding of the Divine One who is everything and nothing, all that we can perceive and all that we cannot. You may even, like the Sufis, find yourself falling head over heels in love with a God who is present everywhere, within you and without. Whatever your religion (or lack of religion), these spiritual poems, inspired by ancient Sufism, will bring you into a deeper relationship with both the Divine and your true Self.
