The mystical experiences of famous poets are presented with a spiritual commentary and 60 poems. The book combines an explanation of classic, mystical experiences with historical material, quotations from the poets' letters and essays, and gem-like poems. The commentary organizes poetry from many cultures by common themes such as awakening, transcendence and unity, pointing out a consistent, mystical worldview that spans centuries of civilizations.
"It is a delightful collection with insightful commentaries and notes. I am sure it will prove to be an important contribution to mysticism and to literature." Dr. John Moyne, Emeritus Professor of Linguistics of The City University of New York and translator of several books of Rumi's poetry.
