Maulana Diwan Shams Tabrizi Ghazal number 1393
I was dead, I came back to life, I cried, I laughed
The government of love came and I became the permanent government
My sight is full, my soul is brave
Venus is a lion, I became a radiant Venus
The above verses describe the situation of Rumi after his meeting with Shams Tabrizi.
But why does Rumi, who considers himself dead and crying, suddenly come alive and laugh, except what Shams Tabrizi did to him, that his life of death has turned into passion and joy.
Shams taught Rumi that it is possible to know his truth and connection not through the path of reason, but through love, drunkenness, passion, passion and mania.
In the way of the beloved, one should be mad, drunk, killed and covered in tarab.
He said that you are not crazy, you are not worthy of this house
I went and became crazy, I became chained
He said that you are not drunk, you are not like this
I went and became intoxicated and full of tarab
He said that you are not killed, you are not covered in tarab
In front of the live action, I was killed and thrown
This enthusiasm and joy, which in Rumi’s lyrical poetry is like a pleasant breeze playing in the inner flower garden, originates from the same love that Rumi learned from Shams.
Shams says to Rumi:
You are like a candle, the qibla of this gathering, you have many and countless disciples who are like butterflies, swirling around the candle of your existence, and you have become a captive of titles and nicknames.
With titles such as writer, mufti, jurist, teacher, you consider yourself a sheikh, leader and leader of the people.
The feathers of worldly attachments and affections have prevented your soul from flying.
You have to take heart from all these so that the sun of truth shines on your heart and removes the carnal veils.
Rumi also makes a sincere promise to submit to Shams.
Pay attention to these verses:
He said that you have become a candle, you have become the Qibla of this congregation
I gather my straw, my straw candle, smoke scattered
He said that sheikhi and secret, forward and leadership
I am Sheikh, I am Pishni, I am your servant
He said that with feathers and feathers, I don’t give feathers and feathers
I was filled with the desire to fly and jump
Shams gave Maulana courage, the courage to let go of himself.
The lesson that Shams taught to Rumi is actually the same message that prophets have for people from God.
The lesson of freedom, freedom from false existences, freedom from the chains of attachments, freedom from the prison of the body, breaking the feathers and wings of materialism and worldly desires.
And it was like this that Rumi, after getting to know and familiar with Shams, his heart comes to life and weaves a new atlas, and from the blessing of the existence of Shams and the light of the truth in his mind, the shining star, Yusuf Zainde, King and God, bright and merciful. , the government becomes permanent and Venus shines
You are the source of the sun, I am the shadow of the willow tree
You shocked me, I became low and melting
The light of life came to my heart, and my heart burst
The new atlas of my heart, I became the enemy of this rag
John’s face, at dawn, boasted to the sight
I became a slave and a slave, I became a king and a lord
Let the merry-go-round be grateful for the property and the property and the property
Because of his grace and forgiveness, I became enlightened and forgiving
Be grateful to Arif Haq, because we all learned a lesson
I became a glorious star on the basis of seven aspects
I gave Venus, I became the moon, I became two hundred wheels
I was Yusuf, and I became Yusuf
