"The events that inspired these verses are collections of memories and fragments that have merged to form poems. The stories of loving experiences between players, that looking for love or company ended up with a wounded heart. These stanzas represent detailed images of the experiences leading to disenchantments and frustrations that loving and losing produces; without forgetting the sublime rapture and ecstasy that loving also inspires. These verses touch the essence of the heart and soul, appealing to that collective need we call love; that human sentiment so powerful, that it can make us touch heaven or sink us to darkest depths of hell."

25 Stories to feed your mind reflects on the book Masnavi Manavi, written by Maulana Jalaluddin Mohammad Rumi. He was also known as Jalaluddin Mohammad Balkhi, and nicknamed Rumi. Rumi was a poet, author, and philosopher who lived in the 13th century. The book Masnavi Manavi is one of the works of this powerful author whose mystical and moral themes are conveyed within instructive stories presented in the form of poetry. This book is a selection of Masnavi Manavi stories in poetry that I have digested and translated from Persian to English as fluent prose. At the end of each story is a brief reflection. These contain observations from other books written about Rumi’s work (noted in my references on the last page), as well as my interpretations of the stories. It should be noted that some points have been added in the descriptions of the stories that may not have been considered by Rumi, but I mentioned them in the description of stories and hope they are useful to my readers. The book Masnavi Manavi has deep moral and mystical meanings and Rumi has tried to convey them like a capable teacher. In this book, I have only considered the basic level of these concepts and have tried to reduce the complexity and depth of the content as much as possible. My goal is to provide an easy read so that a greater audience can become acquainted with this ethics instructor. Rumi’s ability to bring influential points to life in the form of stories helps us to memorize these moral concepts more quickly and to recall them more easily when needed. This book illustrations can also help to memorize and recall the stories from your visual memory. The illustration method can help to remember the stories faster than other books. There are some hidden points in this book. Intentionally I didn't try to clarify, so the reader has the opportunity to research and find the intentions. Also, some stories have open end or not fully described to let the reader research or decide about conclusions. I hope my efforts are entertaining and informative for you.
