Rumi's 7-advice prescription

The world feels dizzy because of the pandemic and the economic crisis. Its sociological effects have just begun to reach all societies.

While money markets are draining day by day like the reality of drought all over the world, it seems as if a century full of abundance is being transferred to another century that will be filled with poverty.

In this painful process of change, humanity is going through a great psychological trauma. The general mood of the societies also shapes the world politics.

As the nation-state policies became widespread, fascism began to reappear all over the world.

As states raise the invisible walls of their countries, the feeling of loneliness and being alone in the world pushes societies into a completely different depression.

Right here, the Masnavi of Rumi, who is the expert of the human spirit from 8 centuries away, presents his ancient prescriptions to all humanity...

Rumi offers a prescription to all humanity with his 7 advices;

• In generosity and helping others; be like a river.
• In compassion and grace; be like the sun.
• In concealing others’ faults; be like the night.
• In anger and fury; be like dead.
• In modesty and humility; be like earth.
• In tolerance; be like a sea.
• Either, exist as you are or be as you look.

Don’t you think this is the prescription to survive?
