Hafiz ~ The Ambience of Love ~ Sufi Mystics

A selection of mystical poems rendered by Daniel Ladinsky in the style of Hafiz from Daniel Ladinsky's book - “I heard God Laughing.“ . *** Please be aware of the issue around Daniel Ladinsky's translations of “Hafiz.“ According to Omid Safi, (Islamic Studies Professor at Duke University), Ladinsky's poems “have no earthly connection to what the historical Hafiz of Shiraz, the Persian sage, ever said. He is making it up. He admitted that they are not “translations“, or “accurate“, or has any knowledge of Persian in his 1996 book “I heard God laughing.“ Ladinsky actually states that Hafez appeared to him in a dream and handed him the ENGLISH “translations” he’s publishing.“ Please also see the Wikipedia entry on the translation issue here: #cite_note-23 Music: Levon Minassian and Armand Amar - 'You Are' El Hadra - 'The Mystic Dance' _______________________________________________ ❤️ A deep thank you to all donors for your offerings of generosity in support of this channel and its intention.
