Abstract

Our world has witnessed many wars and humankind has experienced bitter experiences. Would one find ideas in the thoughts and teachings of Rumi that indicate a life free from wars and fights? What are the reasons for arguments according to Rumi's ideas? Could we find ways of living in peace in Rumi's works? A phenomenological study of Rumi's views shows that he has paid to peace. He considers the world in peace. Rumi holds men differ because they are involved in greed, self-pride, and vices. He proposes ways to remove them as a spiritual physician. He emphasizes spiritual experiences and the necessity of a mystical journey (Tariqah) to purify man’s soul. Mevlana believes peace in society would be passed through man's harmony with himself and God. Man, who has reached peace would be able to be calm with other persons. It seems that Rumi's words apply to today's world. They might cure man's sufferings as well.
