2015 – DOVER: A SAUNTER WITH RUMI

Burdah

St. Margaret’s Bay near Dover, provided the backdrop for this year’s annual walk. Our diverse group of students, teachers, performers, singers-and all those between- walked along the grassy clifftops, celebrating and reflecting upon the work of the great 13th century spiritual master and poet, Mawlana Jalal al-Din Rumi.

A SAUNTER WITH RUMI

The walk took us through St.Margaret Bay’s  sloping hills, flanked with dramatic chalky cliffs, and to the Pines Garden where we were joined by Jumana Moon, a storyteller from award winning theatre group Khayaal for a special performance based on a short story written by Rumi. Further stops were made along the route for short inspirational talks, poetry recitals, Qur’an recitation and devotional song/nasheeds.

THEME

Copies of Rumi’s work have sold in the millions, including in the US where he is now the biggest selling poet. His influence on the Muslim world has even deeper roots. One of the aims of this year’s walk was to celebrate and appreciate Mawlana’s Rumi’s contribution, and in particular the spiritual journey he undertook to attain nearness to God, driven by his love for Him, and for creation in general.
