Jalāl al‐Dīn Mohammad Balkhi‐Mowlana, or more commonly known as Rumi, was a thirteenth century Persian poet, scholar, sufi mystic, and theologian. Join us for a talk to explore Rumi’s eccentric life story and the many intriguing and less traversed facets of his writings and influence before and following his seminal meeting with Shams. Spirituality, lyricality and meaning in his poetry through bilingual recitations are subject of this lecture and more.
