When an individual wants to have personal experiences with the Divine, he or she may find a spiritual teacher, or teaching, to help in the quest. The well-known 13th century Persian poet, Rumi, found a beloved spiritual teacher in the person of Shams of Tabriz, a wandering dervish and Godman. Their spiritual relationship was dynamic, mutually fruitful and life-changing. As the saying goes: When the student is ready, the Master appears.
The author of this book had also been seeking. Beyond the illusions and troubles of the world - both material and psychic - she yearned for something more. Exactly what, was somewhat indefinable: an inner connection, a true purpose, joy, meaning, inner peace, love in its most sacrosanct sense, and a freedom beyond all limitations. What part did she play in the grand scheme of things? Who was she really? About the time she discovered the poems of Rumi, she found a spiritual teacher and teaching which initiated a journey and a spiritual adventure. The journey is a work in progress. Like everyone's, it embraces a lot: challenges, success, loss, joy, tears, lessons and relationships of many kinds - the raw material of life.
This collection reflects moments of realization, transformation, ecstasy, love, surrender, weakness and strength along a spiritual path filled with human and spiritual experiences - one Soul's journey along an illuminated way.
