Rumi's teaching of divine love
Syed Rezaul Karim has outlined the background and appreciated some of the messages of the greatest Sufi Jalaluddin Rumi in his article published in The Daily Star on September 28, 2013. The writer has not gone any deep to analyse the literary value of Rumi's writings but only gave references. Perhaps he could point out how the lessons of Rumi could be adopted in our daily spiritual life.
One of the core problems with most of the religions today is that they compete with each other to establish their faith as the greatest of all. This viewpoint of religions has been nourishing the purpose for division, the ground for conflict and the reason for violence in society. Rumi has not only written the finest poetries for the world, but also has shown the way to master Sufism. We should convey his message of divine love and unity to bring harmony and balance in our daily life.
