The Camel on the Roof: Rumi's Secret to Finding Peace Where You Never Looked

In the middle of the night, a king of Balkh hears strangers on his palace roof searching for a lost camel, and their answer changes his life forever. In this story from Rumi's Masnavi, we travel from ancient Balkh to thirteenth-century Konya to uncover the Sufi teaching of zuhd: the world may stay in your hands, but it should never sit on the throne of your heart. Discover how this ancient parable about success, restlessness, and spiritual awakening can help you find mindfulness and inner peace when even a comfortable life leaves you strangely empty.
