Eshq Al Rooh | Deepak Chopra

Eternal love does not need poetry; But fortunately, some of those who are identical in the love of God wrote down words that allowed us, the readers, to enter their ecstatic world. In Ashraq in particular: that is, within that belt of geography, extending from the Arab region to the Indian subcontinent, one hardly notices a difference between the poet and the saint. Among them, we mention, but are not limited to, Rumi and Merapi; Because there are many more such ones.

Few poems from the most respected poets from the Middle Ages to the present century have been collected in this Divan. The name Rumi has gained a lot of popularity lately, but the others - Kabir, Hafez, Tagore and Merapi - deserve the same spotlight. Each of them is considered in his native culture as a beacon of inspiration to his people, largely because ordinary people have given them a special place in their hearts, and they sing their poems daily.
