Like a sweet voice from my distant past - my Home in India

Maulanaah Jalalludin Balkhi (Rumi)

“In Persian, there are four levels of friendship each relating to a degree in closeness and intimacy: Aashenaa (to know someone casually),
Doost (a close friend),
Rafeegh (your best friend)
and Yaar (your inseparable lover).

However, these levels are independent of the type of physical connection you have with someone.
These degrees of closeness explain your deep soul connection with another being;
your spouse, therefore, may only be your Aashenaa,
or you may have a perfect platonic relationship with a Yaar.


Some mystics measure their intimacy with God and the Beloved by using these levels.
For RUMI, the Beloved and Shams were one, and both (as one) were his Yaar.
That could explain why Rumi’s verses are being dubbed “love poems.” Should they be anything less?”

Когда женщина счастливая, она становится красивее

Когда женщина счастливая, она становится красивее. Когда она становится красивее, становится счастливее. Когда она счастлива, начинает красиво любить. Когда она красиво любит, ты становишься счастливее.

When a woman is happy, she becomes more beautiful. When she becomes prettier, she becomes happier. When she is happy, she begins to love beautifully. When she loves beautifully, you become happier.
