A Year With Hafiz

A Year With Hafiz

Autor/ Author: Ladinsky, Daniel
Verlag/ Publ.: Penguin Group

A year's worth of ruminations from one of the world's most revered literary and spiritual teachers. The poems of Hafiz are not literary remnants from a remote past but masterpieces filled with cherished and timeless wisdom.

With learned insight and a delicate hand, Daniel Ladinsky explores the many emotions addressed in these verses. His renderings, presented here in 365 poignant poems- including a section based on the translations of Hafiz by Ralph Waldo Emerson -capture the compelling wisdom of one of Islam's most revered artistic and religious voices. Intimate and often spiritual, the poems are beautifully sensuous, playful, wacky, profound and full of wonderful wit and humor, and provide guidance for everyday life, as well as reflection points to help readers grow as individuals.

Daniel Ladinsky is an acclaimed translator of mystical poetry. For six years, he made his home in a spiritual community in western India, where he worked and lived with the intimate disciples and family of Avatar Meher Baba. This is his fourth volume of Hafiz poetry in translation.

The Gift - Poems by Hafiz

The Gift

Autor/ Author: Ladinsky, Daniel
Verlag/ Publ.: Penguin Group

More than any other Persian poet—even Rumi—Hafiz expanded the mystical, healing dimensions of poetry. Because his poems were often ecstatic love songs from God to his beloved world, many have called Hafiz the "Invisible Tongue." Indeed, Daniel Ladinsky has said that his work with Hafiz is an attempt to do the impossible: to render Light into words—to make the Luminous Resonance of God tangible to our finite senses.

                                                                         I am
                                                                a hole in a flute
                                                      that the Christ's breath moves
                                                                     through—
                                                            listen to this music!

With this stunning collection of Hafiz's most intimate poems, Ladinsky has succeeded brilliantly in presenting the essence of one of Islam's greatest poetic and religious voices. Each line of The Gift imparts the wonderful qualities of this master Sufi poet and spiritual teacher: encouragement, an audacious love that touches lives, profound knowledge, generosity, and a sweet, playful genius unparalleled in world literature.

I heard God Laughing - Poems by Hafiz

I heard God Laughing

Autor/ Author: Ladinsky, Daniel
Verlag/ Publ.: Penguin Group

From the renowned translator of "The Gift", a rich collection that brings the great Sufi poet to Western readers
To Persians, the poems of Hafiz are not "classical literature" from a remote past but cherished wisdom from a dear and intimate friend that continue to be quoted in daily life. With uncanny insight, Hafiz captures the many forms and stages of love. His poetry outlines the stages of the mystic's "path of love"- a journey in which love dissolves personal boundaries and limitations to join larger processes of growth and transformation.
With this stunning collection, Ladinsky has succeeded brilliantly in translating the essence of one of Islam's greatest poetic and spiritual voices. BACKCOVER: "If you haven't yet had the delight of dining with Daniel Ladinsky's sweet, playful renderings of the musings of the great saints, I Heard God Laughing is a perfect appetizer. . . . This newly released edition of his first playful foray into Hafiz's divinely inspired poetry is essential reading . . . . Ladinsky is a master who will be remembered for finally bringing Hafiz alive in the West."
