Rumi: Philosophers & Love's Intoxication, Ghazal 1631, Divan

Persian Mystical Poetry Podcast Producer and host: Rasoul Rahbari-Ghazani Co-host: Reyhaneh Davoodi-Kahaki Consultant: Mohammad Davoodi Music: Amirmohammad Monjezi: https://www.youtube.com/@amirmohamdmonjezi Ghazal 1631 from Rumi's Divan is an invitation to divine intoxication, where logic drowns, and love reigns supreme. The wine of the soul flows freely, awakening those who are asleep to the secrets of existence. Rumi calls on the cupbearer to pour the sacred wine, a drink not of this world but of pure awakening. He mocks philosophers who cling to logic, declaring that true lovers have drowned in the sea of love. For them, even the vast ocean is but a single cup.   My latest books: Sarayān: The Real’s Permeation: Ibn ʿArabi on the Divine Presence in the Cosmos with Neoplatonic Insights (available in both digital and print formats): https://immortalechoes.org/pages/our-press The Soul-Conquering Love in Fayz Kashani’s Poetry: Translations and Annotations (Persian and English); available for in print and digital formats: https://immortalechoes.org/pages/our-press   Visit our ⁠Academy of Mystic Poetics and Philosophy⁠, and check out our courses: https://immortalechoes.org/pages/courses If you enjoy the content and wish to ⁠support our work⁠, your generosity helps us continue creating: https://immortalechoes.org/pages/donations Watch more from Persian Mystical Poetry Podcast: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqkz7b_183HHJERERmZ7fn8cYrLJOzvqy&si=m5l2JJfTOLetqpST  Watch more from our Ibn Arabi Podcast: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqkz7b_183HG0qkYvbH9dyTAWnncKZGLp&si=sCNGBNjB7RRRIZat My recent publications: https://istanbul.academia.edu/RasoulRahbariGhazani    #sufism #Islamic_mysticism #mysticism #Rumi #persianpoetry #persian_poem
