First line: A dervish in the village customarily told a tale
each evening after dinner, wherever he was.
Why you should read this book: Dervishes, or Sufis, are a
group of mystics whose philosophy emphasizes living in the moment, releasing
that which does not serve, and recognizing the divine in all things. These
stories read much like parables, with many levels of meaning, alone with a
quiet humor, overt messages, and useful advice. Dervishes talk to inanimate
objects, learn powerful life lessons from small happenings, help their
neighbors, and seek out simple solutions and simple truths.
Why you shouldn’t read this book: You have proprietary
feelings toward your anger and discontent.
