Hintli-Ingiliz Sufi geleneginden bir yazar ve egitmen Idris Sah’in dogum yildonumu (16 Haziran 1924)
“Bir adam bir kopege sopayla vuruyordu. Kopek aldigi darbenin acisiyla uluyordu.’Ey kopek sana nicin vurdu’ dedim.’Kendinden daha iyi birini gormeye tahammulu yok’ dedi." (Sibli)
“I saw a guard hitting a dog with a stick. The dog was howling as it suffered the strokes. I said: 'O dog, why has he struck you?' He said: 'He cannot bear to see one better than himself.' ” Shibli
“Diger sufi yazarlar gibi Mevlana da ogretilerini, derindeki manasini yansittigi kadar gizlemeyi de basaran bir iskelet icerisine yerlestirir. Bu teknik, materyali ust bir seviyede kullanmaya yetkin olmayanlarin onunla tam bir etkilesime girmekten alikonmasini saglar. Boylece, siir isteyenlerin siiri almasina izin verir; hikaye isteyenlere hosca vakit gecirtir; isteyenlerin ise zihinlerini harekete gecirir.”
“Rumi, like other Sufi authors, plants his teachings within a frame work which as eifectively screens its inner meaning as displays it. This technique fulfils the functions of preventing those who are incapable of using the material on a higher level from experimenting eifectively with it; allowing those who want poetry to select poetry; giving entertainment to people who want stories; stimulating the intellect in those who prize such experiences.”
