Rumi: The Guest House

This poem is magical and deeply steeped in wisdom. Rumi reminds us that the human body is a guest house to emotions and feelings, they come and they go. The poem invites us to welcome each emotion as it comes, good or bad, and harvest the wisdom that it bears. Rumi is the most read poet of all time according to some sources, probably because he speaks to our hearts, not our minds. Henry reads the brief poem twice and plays his guitar by a rushing stream.

Reviews

A great reminder to not struggle with emotions but bring them in and let them pass as they will.

Calming sounds and wise message. Even after experiencing wettest July for years (285% average) I love the sound of rain.

What a beautiful reading, the sounds of water gave it such a wonderful atmospheric quality and I loved the guitar... Thank you Henry for yet another treasured offering. Love and blessings to you 💗x
