Dialogues with the Divine - Hardcover

by Jackson Coleman-Burke (Author)

From the days of the great Persian poets, including Rumi and Hafez, until the tumult of the changing world we live in now, the devotional poetry known as ghazals invites us to participate in a decisive turning point in the eternal cycle of evolutionary and involutionary creation, a spiritual push, as it were, to the re-attainment of the only real Truth. The ancient ghazals of the spiritual masters and the modern ghazals of today weave together across the centuries, creating a solid yet fluid structure, a web across time and space, a structural spiritual foundation for all who tread or are seeking the Path of Love. Ghazals herald the dawn of a new age. What greater gift could you give to God than loving and remembering Him with all your heart and mind? For, after all, He is our Real Self! Jack Burke, writing under the nom de plume AMBrose, began writing these poems seven years after his first direct experience with Avatar Meher Baba, his Beloved. It seemed to Jack that his Master had stripped him of everything he held dear - everything, that is, except Himself. Jack found himself sitting in an empty coffee shop in downtown San Francisco at three in the morning in a space of total aloneness, as far as this world was concerned; his only company was a cigarette, a cup of coffee, a pen, and a blank sheet of paper. He felt irresistibly compelled to begin writing - and to my tremendous surprise, as he began to write, he felt as if a door had opened. He had stepped over a threshold to gaze upon a vast expanse of uncharted territory. Jack hopes that these poems will offer a map for the journey, both inner and outer, for all those who are serious lovers of the Beloved.
