holy scripture for sure

This is in my top-5 books and one that i will pick up and read a portion at any time, enjoying it as if it is the first time!

My favorite: The Tempest, A Poet's Voice, We and You, The Ambitious Violet, A Poet's life is His Death. I actually love all his writings. He writes my soul's song.

I need to organize notes on what I've read by Kahlil Gibran. Will update this when I flip through and see which books exactly I've read.

This is a series of Gibran's many poetic masterpieces.
gibran touches on the human Condition in many of its forms and phases with such majestic prose. His philosophical and spiritual expressions of love and life are biblical and prophetic.
I would recommend reading "The Nature
of Love" first(but not necessary)as this is a study of Kahlil Gibran's philosophy and Life,a native Lebonese and much of his work translated from Arabic.

*“ I shall be happy when men shall say about me what they said of Blake: “he is a mad man”.*

Gibran romanticized nature and found in it an inspirational power for his poetry. He identified the divine essence with the natural world and established a mystical union with nature, a relationship of love and harmony.

After reading all Gibran's books in English at my school's library, I shall state that reading for Gibran is a mystic experience. It gave me heavenly vibes.
Concisely, it is a meditation on life, death, divinity, spirituality, materialism, internationalism,...
It is indeed thought provoking. He awakens your mind, shelters your body, and hugs your soul.
I have never read anything similar to his writings.
Kahlil Gibran is a Prophet to Literature.

I have read a number of Gibran's books & have always wanted to read this one. Amazing!

There is not much I can write here without being somewhat reductive. The depth in these writings is to the core, so much to reflect on and ponder. A beautiful book with my favourites and one I turn to for reflection often.

may be better than shakespeare...for those who love beautiful literature, but aren't into old english, it mos definitely gets the nod.

This book is pure inspiration. A man with the heart and soul of a poet and prophet...the loveliest of marriages.

There is a reason why Khalil Gibran has been refered to as the Shakespeare of the Arabic world. His writings are amazing, elegant, deep, and words of wisdom in the true sense (sophoi logoi)!
