Rumi, Qur’an & Universal Teachings
Date: Saturday, November 5, 2022
Time: 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Led by: Jamal Rahman
Rumi, Qur’an & Universal Teachings
When the heart of the 13th century sage Rumi opened up, he heard whispers of divine secrets from
invisible realms. In his understanding of divine revelations Rumi moved from knowledge of tongue to knowledge of heart. In astonishment he exclaimed that he could hear “birdsong in the egg.”
In this six week class, Jamal will share some of these celestial insights that can help us in our contemporary world to live a life of inspiration, hope, joy, and meaning.
