A beautiful collection of moving and thought-provoking poems from mystics of all traditions which will encourage you to listen to your own heart, marvel at the wonder of nature and explore profound truths of life, death, eternity and the Divine.
From the Bhagavad Gita, the Vedas and the Song of Solomon to Rumi and Rilke, all the great mystical writers are here, including Attar, Ansari, St Teresa of Avila, Lao Tzu, John Donne, John Bunyan, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Elizabeth Barratt Browning, Christine Rossetti and Walt Whitman. When your soul hungers for peace, understanding or comfort, there is no answer as profound as poetry. In our fast-spinning world where noise and busyness we can often feel disconnected from our spirit, this collection provides true nourishment for the soul.
