    In this episode, we return to the luminous world of Rumi’s poetry—where metaphors of fanaa and baqaa, cages and flight, and intoxication and surrender guide us inward. These are not just images but doorways. Join us as we explore more of Rumi’s endless metaphors, each one a mirror to the soul.

A passionate tribute to Rumi: Ashwin's masterful introduction

I've been a devoted reader of Rumi since childhood, immersing myself in his works like the Dewan Shams, Masnavi Manawi, and Fihi Ma Fihi. With this deep understanding, I can confidently say that Ashwin has truly honored Rumi's legacy. Ashwin's introduction to Rumi is infused with passionate love, and I am profoundly grateful for his effort.
