Islamic Parables - Tales from Yunus Emre's Spiritual World and the Tapduk Emre Lodge

The Message of Love for Those Seeking Peace in Family Relationships

"Problems within the family can sometimes lead to conflicts and disagreements. Such challenges can disrupt the balance between the heart and the mind. However, a spiritual journey and the unifying power of love can provide a striking solution to overcome these disagreements. This tale will inspire you on the path to creating a loving environment by shedding the dualities within the family. Learn how true love can enhance peace within the family and unite your hearts."

Yunus Emre was striving to create a collection in the lodge. In an environment where everyone was debating different beliefs, a dervish he knew well came to him and said, 'Love means to distance oneself from duality.' Influenced by these words, Yunus created a fictional story: Once upon a time, a river set out to meet the sea. However, it was difficult to make this visit on a path filled with currents, rocks, and obstacles. Yet, the river managed to reach the sea by overcoming all obstacles. This has been a concrete example of how love appears when it distances itself from duality. To reach love by loving means to be interconnected.
