If it's handy.

Hello Miss Hepburn,

My apologies for the late response... I'm having computer problems.

I found this online referencing Daniel Ladinsky (from his book, The Gift) like Miha mentioned.


Blessings,
serene

“This is the kind of Friend
You are -
Without making me realize
My soul's anguished history,
You slip into my house at night,
And while I am sleeping,
You silently carry off
All my suffering and sordid past
In Your beautiful
Hands.”

Hafez

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

My apologies

Dear all,

I just found out that all the beautiful poems I posted were sadly not a translation of the original words of the Persian mystic Hafiz.
All these poems got really known worldwide due to the books of Daniel Ladinsky, who published them with Hafiz name on it, stating that these were poems from Hafiz, ’Translated by Daniel Ladinsky’.

I’m very sorry that I did not research this whole subject before starting this thread.
I’m so sad to found out the truth just now and just embarrassed.
My humble apologies to all who thought they found some authentic words of Hafiz in my posts.
I truly believed myself that these were translations of the original Persian words.
I never meant to deceive anyone on purpose.

I will ask the admins of this forum how to handle this thread or to delete it if needed.

Again, I’m very sorry.

Miha dear,

You did not have to apologize and please do not feel embarrassed... It wasn't your fault, not at all...
