Rumi's poems elegantly and consistently touch our inner being and inspire us to go beyond our limitations towards the Divine.
The music: The credits do appear at the end of this video, but it is by the composer, Eleni Karaindrou, and is the theme music called "Eternity and a Day" from the movie, Aggelopoulos.
A note on the music: This entire video was constructed in silence-only the poem and the images were put together without my knowing what music would be the right one. The music is so important to the interpretation of these poems. Rather than reading them, the music is my voice. When I 'laid' this beautiful piece of music over the video it fit perfectly. Few edits were made to accomodate the images to fit the music. They seem to be made for each other.
Note for those who overlook the message and want to 'claim' Rumi as their own (country, nationality, language) they've missed the point completely and these comments will be deleted.

rumi is/was universal and enlighted. Any discussion about him beeing Iranian, Turkish or gay shows that the commentators did not understand yet. But hopefully they will, reading more
Of course his philosophy is universal. Iranians are not trying to limit Rumi's poems to themselves,but in order to prove Jesus and Budha's philosophy are universal,u dont have to deny the culture they were influenced by.How is Rumi different?

I find a striking similarity between Great Rumis poem and the vedic/hindu philisophy of non-dualism; ie; the oneness between the creator and his creations or that same divine energy which flows through all of us, be it humans or other animals and most importantly realisaton of this fact is called enlightment or state of awakening....indeed Rumi is such one
