One of the reasons Rumi’s work resonates so deeply across cultures and centuries is its radical inclusivity. While he was a devout Muslim, his poetry often transcends the rigid boundaries of organized religion. He famously wrote about finding the Divine not in temples, churches, or mosques, but within the human heart. This universalism has made him a bridge between the East and the West, attracting readers from diverse backgrounds who find solace in his message that "the paths are many, but the goal is one." His work emphasizes the common spiritual heritage of all mankind over sectarian differences.
