“Meeting Rumi”

“Rumi, for it was indeed him, wore a simple brown woolen cloth robe, the ‘suf’ from which ‘Sufi’ is derived, and a white turban. But the man’s face was the pure distillation of love. His small mouth was as delicately sculpted as a masterpiece miniature; his nose, long and narrow. Rumi’s eyes, shaded by thick brows and half again as large as a normal man’s, dominated his visage. They were the color of mahogany and seemed large enough to take in the very universe. Yet it was their softness that struck the observer most powerfully. These eyes bathed their viewer with interest, care, and love. They were remarkable eyes!”

Richard Maddox

Richard Dietrich Maddox's writing focuses on the search for permanent happiness, the goal of finding paradise on earth, the attainment of human Enlightenment. His work, though fiction, attempts to convey the profound spiritual Truth passed on to humanity by Enlightened Masters. Maddox approaches spiritual wisdom from a Western level of experience, presenting characters to whom readers can easily relate, offering situations in which readers might well have found themselves. His work offers, in a style which those living in the West will find understandable, the possibility of blissful existence.
