Mevlana Celaddiin-i Rumi is a 13th century Muslim saint and Anatolian mystic known throughout the world for his exquisite poems and words of wisdom, which have been translated into many languages. The United Nations declared 2007 The Year of Rumi and celebrations were held world wide.
Mevlana was a Muslim. His doctrine advocates unlimited tolerance, positive reasoning, goodness, charity and awareness through love. To him all religions were more or less truth. Mevlana looked with the same eye on Muslim, Jew and Christian alike. His peaceful and tolerant teachings have appealed to men of all sects and creeds.
In 1958, Pope John XXIII wrote a special message saying: “In the name of the Catholic World, I bow with respect before the memory of Rumi.”
Mevlana died on 17 December 1273 and was laid to rest beside his father in Konya, in present day Turkey. A splendid shrine, the Mevlana Moseleum was erected over their remains, which is now a museum and place of pilgrimage.
Every year on that day, at this magnificient 13th century mausoleum we celebrate Seb-i Arus, his ‘Wedding Day’, together with thousands of people from all around the world.Whirling Dervishes
The ‘dance’ of the Whirling Dervishes is called Sema and is a part of the inspiration of Mevlana and has become part of Turkish custom, history, beliefs and culture. From a scientific viewpoint we witness that contemporary science definitely confirms that the fundamental condition of our existence is to revolve. There is no object, no being which does not revolve and the shared similarity among beings is the revolution of the electrons, protons and neutrons in the atoms, which constitute the structure of each of them. As a consequence of this similarity, everything revolves and man carries on his live, his very existence by means of the revolution in the atoms, structural stones of his body, by the revolution of his blood, by his coming from the earth and return to it, by his revolving with earth itself. the Sema ceremony represents a mystical journey of man’s spiritual ascent through mind and love to „Perfect“. Turning towards the truth, his growth through love, desert his ego, find the truth and arrive to the „Perfect“, then he return from this spiritual journey as a man who reached maturity and a greater perfection, so as to love and to be of service to the whole of creation, to all creatures without discrimination of believes, races, classes and nations.Come, Come again ! Whatever you are…
Whether you are infidel, idolater or fireworshipper.
Whether you have broken your vows of repentance a hundred times This is not the gate of despair, This is the gate of hope. Come, come again…
Mawlana Jelaleddin RUMISeven advices of MEVLANA
In generosity and helping others, be like a river…
In compassion and grace, be like sun…
In concealing others’ faults, be like night…
In anger and fury, be like dead…
In modesty and humility, be like earth…
In tolerance, be like a sea…
Either exist as you are, or be as you look.
