Title: Rumi: Say I Am You (Sufi poem)
Added: Apr 14, 2007
Author: rahmama2
Duration: 4:15
Description:
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.For more Sufi-inspired Islamic art, go tohttp://www.starsonadarknight.homestead.com

Jan 12, 2012 - @rahmama2For all those who peddle the false idea labeled as "freedom"..IT DOESN'T EXIST!Freedom is merely a concept; an impossible concept, at that! A concept impossible to ever materialize for any of the creations!All things amongst the creations are subject to laws, rules, regulations, limits, needs, desires, and so on.. and all of these things are reasons why you will NEVER be free!"Freedom" is one of the oldest scams ever sold to mankind!You're better off a slave of allah!

Jan 14, 2012 - Whether God is or is not, That I cannot say.Though beauty pulses through me as my life's blood,That I can say, though not with words.Through ecstasy's gateway I dance, With silence in the gaps between my "i" 's.No need for anything, Say, this moment, that stretches endlessly.

Jan 22, 2012 - If your HEART cannot see BEAUTY where its lies, so your reason of which you proudly claim to adhere is vain. And your capital words empty...Cheers.

Jan 30, 2012 - I love the poems of Hafez and Rumi. I wish I could read Farsi and Turkish, but I can't, so I suppose I must make do with (probably) inferior English translations. If I ever visit Turkey again, I will visit Rumi's tomb in Konya... what a great soul.

Feb 17, 2012 - I am so grateful for the beauty of this poetry, music and images.... I have played this video dozens of times and it fills me with such potent love for all.... I belong to no religion yet I am lover of God..... for wherever I look I face a miracle. Even this chair I am sitting on is nothing but a universe of complex energy patterns that is creating the illusion of solidity to cradle my buttocks. Think about the complexities of the physical body..... Being alive for even 1 second is a miracle..

Mar 18, 2012 - he is saying his ego has died so now instead of identifying with a self, he identifies with the universe.
zameer859 Says:
Mar 22, 2012 - in this video the Rumi said the universe is within me, and i'm exploring it. The Rumi is father of Mysticism I love him very much. I front of Rumi every one, every religion is equal but our little knowledge makes difference among religions, humans etc. so my advice to every faith dont make differences read ur scriputers in mystical way.

Apr 4, 2012 - I wish sufism was more mainstream amongst us Muslims. Salafist Wahhabis hate everything different.

Apr 11, 2012 - Ah, this is the video I come for when I need to relax. Everything is good here: The pictures, the video and the people leaving comments. I want to hug all of you, dear visitors! Love to everyone who grasps the beauty of these verses. Yes, I am a Christian, too. And exactly BECAUSE I am a Christian I love my dear fellow, Rumi, who had such a loving relationship with God. May He bless all of you!
rahmama2 Says:
Apr 12, 2012 - Thank you Similisan for your heartfelt comments. Rumi has a special timeless gift that still brings people together and still brings out the best in humanity. Love to you too.
