Learn about love by reading poetry by a long dead poet named Rumi. No need to look for ancient texts hidden in caves...Search
Net.In this modern age of technology, busy lifestyles, and obsession with consumerism have taken a lot of
romance and love out of our lives. The Internet has become a medium to connect with people as everyone is finding it a lot harder to meet one another in
‘real’ world. It has undeniably also become a place of voyeuristic fantasy in
realms of sexuality on pornographic sites. What ever happened to true love? Are our priorities so messed up that romance has been forgotten, only to be experienced vicariously through television and movies? The answer is no. Romance will never die; we just have to feed it with our energy.
Around 800 years ago a famous Arabic poet, philosopher and sage named Rumi wrote beautiful love poetry beyond all comparison. I don’t know if there have been many other people in Earth’s history that have thought about love as much as this master. His poems have not been forgotten, and one place you can simply find and read them is on
Internet. E.g. www.khamush.com/love_poems.html
The beauty of
heart The beauty of
heart is
lasting beauty: its lips give to drink of
water of life. Truly it is
water, that which pours, and
one who drinks. All three become one when your talisman is shattered. That oneness you can't know by reasoning. (Rumi)
