Excerpt from The Persian Mystics: Jalalu'd-Din RumiThe object of the Editors of this series is a very definite one. They desire above all things that, in their humble way, these books shall be the ambassadors of good-will and understanding between East and Westwthe old world of Thought and the new of Action. In this en deavour, and in their own sphere, they are but followers of the highest example in the land. They are confident that a deeper knowledge of the great ideals and lofty philosophy of Oriental thought may help to a revival of that true spirit of Charity which neither despises nor fears the nation of another creed and colour.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
