From the foreword to the chapter of Rumi's poetry translated by Coleman Banks. I assume the translator is also the author of this foreword. #Rumi #ColemanBanks #Persia #Tavern #Healing #Poetry #Transformation #KeepYourHeartOpen #ComingHome #SoulIsTheTraveller
Say this poem in your chest it doesn’t matter how it sounds going through your mouth. A human body is a bow. Breathing and speech are arrows. When the quiver and arrows are used up or lost, there is nothing more for the bow to do. —Rumi, excerpt from “with you here between” Coleman banks translation Ūrdhva Dhanurāsana “upward bow pose”

What’s Not Here ~Rumi, (translation by Coleman Banks) I start out on this road, call it love or emptiness. I only know what’s not here: resentment seeds, back scratching greed, worrying about out- come, fear of people. When a bird gets free, it does not go back for remnants left on the bottom of the cage! Close by, I’m rain. Far off, a cloud of fire. I seem restless, but I am deeply at ease. Branches tremble; the roots are still. I am a universe in a handful of dirt, whole when totally demolished. Talk about choices does not apply to me. While intelligence considers options, I am somewhere lost in the wind.
Every once in a while I go back to this book. It never disappoints... such wisdom, such imagery... #Rumi #rumiquotes #poetry #rumiquotes #amreadingpoetry #colemanbanks #poetryintranslation
Discussing my painting DEPTH which is a painting done during #quarantine and #shelterinplace. This video starts with a discussion about my overall practice and focus on the human condition & experience, goes into the inspiration behind the painting and ends with a reading of #Rumi’s poem “Buoyancy” ( #ColemanBanks translation). Hope you enjoy! 🤍🤗 #paintingprocess #paintingvideo #artistsoninstagram #femaleartists #figurepainting

August is here and Rumi looms near. Time to move on, perhaps? "Load up. Say goodbye to this dusty place. A young luck rides at the head of us..._". "Drink enough wine so that you stop talking/You are a tavern / where no one makes much sense..." #rumi #colemanbanks #iran #tehran #perennialism #globalvoice #poetry #bridgetothesoul
"When you seek peace, you must have waged a war of your own. For what is peace if you have never known war." Essential Rumi enlighten me, Sire. #bangkokdiaries #bookstagram #bookstoread #books #theessentialrumi #colemanbanks #rumi

Day 6 : Book of Healing. I had to think a bit to figure out what I could use for this prompt, because I don't own any self help or diet or exercise books. But I do own this beautiful Kindle Edition of the essential #rumi #poetry translated by #colemanbanks • • I don't read a lot of poetry, but Rumi speaks to the soul. My good friend @asmabadar1 recommended Rumi to me, and I'm very thankful. The small section I have read is beautiful. @bookbattle #bookbattle #bbthedawncourt
