Its author, Jalaloddin Rumi, was a poet and mystic of the highest attainment, but he was first and foremost a spiritual teacher, and his \u003ci\u003eMasnavi\u003c\/i\u003e is a ladder to the spiritual world, leading the reader to the ultimate goal of the Sufi path-union with God. Alan Williams's translation into blank verse beautifully conveys the poetry of the original Persian couplets, while his introduction discusses how the modern reader might approach Rumi's writing.","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45086469128343,"sku":"9780140447910","price":520.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780140447910.webp?v=1767639169","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/spiritual-verses-the-first-book-of-the-masnavi-ye-ma-navi-9780140447910","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
