Prince Charles Visits Muslim Mystic's Tomb in Turkey
Monday, November 26, 2007
KONYA, Turkey — Prince Charles and his wife visited the mausoleum of one of Islam's greatest mystic poets Monday and watched the traditional whirling dance of his followers, the dervishes.
The heir to the British throne and his wife Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, are on a four-day tour of historic sites in Turkey.
I bet the minders kept a close eye on her to ensure that she didn't get rounded up into some camel sales....
In Konya, central Turkey, they visited the mausoleum of the 13th-century poet Mavlana Jalal al-Din al-Rumi, who is considered to be the father of Sufism — the mystical form of Islam that preaches tolerance and love.
There's a form of Islam that teaches tolerance and love??? Since when??? Going on the deadshit variety of followers that they let into this country, I'm inclined to believe that this form no longer exists.
The two looked at handwritten books and costumes as well as verses of the Quran painted on the ceiling.
"Verses of the Quran painted on the ceiling"?? I had the impression that their holy book and the verses contained therein could not be used as artwork or taken in any variation outside the book lest it be deemed blasphemous?
Hmmm... Yet another example of followers of the Cult of the Paedophile making up 'the rules' as they go along.
Charles and Camilla later watched dervishes whirl in a traditional trancelike meditation, called sema, one palm turned up toward heaven, the other turned down toward earth.
In a speech after the sema ceremony, the prince said: "What better place then here near the resting place of (al-Rumi) to rededicate ourselves to the purpose of reacquiring an understanding heart and a rebalance of the East and West in ourselves."
What will reacquire a rebalance of the East and West is for these towel-heads to mature as a people OUT of the bronze age and allign their thinking with the rest of the planet in accepting others who may not be believers in the same things that they use to guide their lives. Until then, I feel perfectly justified in saying all that I do about this "religion" and it's false prophet!
As for the "great" mystic poet, Mavlana Jalal al-Din al-Rumi - I might suggest that being a follower himself of the famous child-rapist/war-monger, his poetry may be something like this:
I saw a 9-year-old
I thought for a moment
Would it seem so bold
To buy her for a goat?
I never said he was a good poet but I suppose it loses a bit in the translation.... >:)
