{"product_id":"9780140447910","title":"Spiritual Verses by The Jalaluddin Rumi","description":"Begun in 1262 AD, Masnavi-ye Ma `navi, or `spiritual couplets', is thought to be the longest single-authored `mystical' poem ever written. As the spiritual masterpiece of the Persian Sufi tradition, it teaches how to progress to the ultimate goal of the Sufi path - union with God. Jalaloddin Rumi was a poet and a mystic, but he was first a teacher; in these verses he draws the reader into the complexities of human love and separation and explains the path to divine love through the elimination of self-regard and worldly desires. Drawing on diverse sources from bawdy tales and fables to stories of the prophet Mohammed, these verses are brief in expression yet copious in meaning.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56224361251189,"sku":"9780140447910","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780140447910.jpg?v=1762223912","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780140447910","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
