Summary: No modern teacher is more passionate about the mystical experience than Andrew Harvey. As Sounds True producer Mitchell Clute puts it, “Andrew always delivers his message in the most ecstatic terms, and nowhere is he more compelling than when discussing the Sufi poet Jalal Rumi.” Rumi is what Andrew Harvey calls a “divine rebel”—a person whose direct connection to God transformed the world. In this excerpt from the audio program Divine Rebels, recorded by Andrew Harvey and Caroline Myss, Andrew examines the mystical love between Rumi and Shams-e-Tabriz, and shares his translation of one of Rumi’s greatest poems.
