"Hafiz" ~ A Thousand Stringed Instrument ~ Sufi Mystics
A selection of mystical poems rendered by Daniel Ladinsky in the style of Hafiz.
*** Please be aware of the issue around Daniel Ladinsky's translations of "Hafiz" According to Omid Safi, (Islamic Studies Professor at Duke University), Ladinsky's poems "have no earthly.connection. to what the historical Hafiz of Shiraz, the Persian sage, ever said. He is making it up. He admitted that they are not "translations", or "accurate", or has any knowledge of Persian in his 1996 book "I heard God laughing." Ladinsky actually states that Hafez appeared to him in a dream and handed him the ENGLISH “translations” he’s publishing."
Please also see the Wikipedia entry on the translation issue here:

Dear Listeners, this is an old recording where I used some copyrighted music in this video so YT plays ads to collect revenue for the record company. Sorry about that. There are many ways to overcome this. On your end, you can simply install an adblocker on your device (search Google for them - many are free); change your browser to "Brave browser" - it blocks all ads on all sites; join YT premium and avoid all ads on YT. The other easy option is to listen to my recordings (and download if you wish) either on my Google Drive or the many Podcast platforms where there are no ads. You can find links to all of these in the top right-hand corner from my Home page on my You Tube channel. Hope you can find some good options. The ads will only appear on those readings where the music is copyrighted and I am trying to avoid this now as much as possible these days. Warm regards
🙏
Your beauty shines. Blessings.
You’re amazing, May Allah reward you for your efforts and kindness ❤
Thank you ❤

"the heart is a thousand-stringed instrument that can only be tuned by love"
I may never have discovered so many wonderful and beautiful teachers, saints, sages, and mystics if it were not for this wonderful and beautiful Samaneri named Jayasara. I hold eternal gratitude and reverence for this, for you, and for our having met somehow from all the way around the world in this virtual space. God bless you and God bless the internet, and of course all beings everywhere in every time and place and beyond without exception! 💚🙏💚
Echo
This is a real life statement!
I approve this msg
I have learned so much from God that I can no longer call myself a Christian a Hindu a Jew a Muslim a Buddhist the truth has shared so much of itself with me 💚🙏
Yes it's liberating every house is my own, Bodreless, free as a bird in open sky, what a unexpected evergrowing grace. .
Dear Jayasara, please do more of Hafez verses. I speak Hafiz's language but your voice adds a magic to it that touches every fiber of my being. Sending you lots of love. ❤️❤️❤️
When studied, one appreciates an eloquent and "moving" Persian piece of myticism by a Sufi Poet, Hafez. A warm, sweet tea in hand, light, two Muslina, Bohemian cloths helps me feel Hafez's spirit, a guide! In a place where we as a country are experiencing the winter months, this reading meditation reveals to me a transformation of the self: a free, unattached, guided consciouness, mysticism, mystery and a bohemian way of life, a Somali woman: the bondages, a form was in, now all ropes are free, free. " He/She must love me": "( everything must love me)", attracting all to me and sinking deep into the blackhole: a shell of a woman who through sights and sounds has come to know about things in the wrong way, yet also in the right way!
Wow… your words are such beautiful poetry, written, I presume, by inspiration of poetry. You set a scene so serene… blessed by that which is bohemian and that which is botanical, natural yet neutral… the Beloved expressed boundlessly in that which is bound by form… may freedom always be yours. May it always be the outcome of all of your exploits and explorations. May it be ever evolving into newer forms as you venture further and further out into life’s great frontier and as you travel deeper and deeper inwardly into the once known, which we’ve given the name “the unknown.” May all shackles become bracelets… no longer locked down but rather crowned by all you’ve experienced and all you’ve known - pain and pleasure included. As you drape your space with bohemian cloths and wrap yourself in bohemian clothes, may the mystic in you be made to be your Lover… the Beloved so decadently woven into your very fabric of being. Your being is poetry… a love letter from the Beloved to the world, may you always feel the openness as eyes read the beauty that you are… Beloved made flesh… the fruition of seeds of love planted on this side of reality… Sip the tea prepared as a companion to orations by those who have come before you, but keep in mind, they now live in you… one day, someone will sip tea, on and in bohemian cloths - and they will think of you. Sending Love, Light, Harmony & Continued Good vibes to you and yours 🙏🏾😊❤️
What we speak becomes the house we live in. - Hafez. Thanks for uploading this great work.
Oh! to have a partner in life to adore and read poetry together. I have been alone for so long, I never did meet such a person. Happily I enjoy it alone
No longer alone Margaret, my love. Nor have you ever been 💜💚🌷
💕🌸
*Sigh ♥️🌹
I am with you Margaret
Do not surrender your grief so quickly let it cut more deeply let it ferment and season you as few human or divine ingredients can. How beautiful is this......Nothing cuts so deep as grief
I have woven a blanket out of the words of Hafiz It is wrapped around me now It comforts me. Thank you Samaneiri💜💜💜
Love sometimes wants to do us a great favour,hold us upside down and shakes all the nonsense out...♥️
Absolutely beautiful. I hear what is lost to myself in these words, that needs to be found again.
There is so much beauty in this Life. You are a reminder and a voice sprung directly from It. I am so greatfull and bow in gratitude. Thank you for delivering these masterpieces in the way you do.
Yes you put it perfectly
I have listened to this over and over and each time I hear new meanings. Each time my heart breaks open more and more....what an amazing human being was this Hafiz! Thank you!!! Can you imagine this world where we were all brought up with such beauty in our lives?
Allah brought us here, and to Him we shall return!
This is more hafiz quotes rather than actual poems but very beautiful for none Farsi speakers to hear thank you
The droning music and piercing words made me cry. We are so blessed. This is so beautiful. Thank-you.
Wow, how wonderful. This clip came up on Christmas Eve. And was exactly right with the depth of feelings I was going through. And the reminder that we are all One family. Blessings for your amazing work Samaneri.
I feel your presence Your soulful voice reading The words of Hafiz Touching my soul No longer alone💜💜💜
We listened to this for Shab-e Yalda tonight. So beautiful. Yalda Mobarak, everyone!

He is definitely a divine madman......
Oh Jayasara! Another beautiful gift for today, and of course a Persian one !! Merci beaucoup 🌹🌹🙏🏻
Grippingly calm. Beautiful. Thank you.
So calming and relaxing and meanwhile giving hope.
I feel every word of Hafiz and am in total accord How I adore his works. Thanknyou💜
So grateful to have found your channel, thank you Samaneri. It is no accident that we are here 🙏
Thank you so much for shining the bright light of truth onto my life... 🙏🙏🙏
I love the metaphor of Love, in an act of great kindness, turns me upside down to shake all the nonsense out of me. I need that on a regular Ha !
I have no words...feeling the bliss!
I'm inclined to say something based on the feeling induced by listening to this. Can only say thank you so very much. Love the music words and truth. Always.❤
Most beautiful, the music, the words, and the rendition.
Stunningly beautiful and timely Thank you
I'm so grateful I was led to this channel. Your meditations take me to another dimension . 💜
Once I had a dream saying that it’s all about Love- so whatever you call the Absolute, Jaweh, God, Allah or. Beloved, the universe is made of Love. Your voice, Samaneri together with Hafez reminds me.
Absolutely wonderful. What a pity this was interrupted twice by KZhead ads!!!
On opening KZhead videos, just immediately take the video timer cursor to the end of the video, then reject the next recommended videos, and then press the video restart; no adverts will then present during the watching of the video. This works for 95% of all KZhead videos 🤗
I ❤ u. Thx. Found you just now. Maybe just when mostly needed. Unbelievably divine
thank you for making these your voice is very soothing
Wondeful words of Hafiz... Thankyou... was touched by this one... ✨🙏✨❤️✨🔥✨
It's funny but it made me sad and peaceful at the same time.beautiful poetry of the golden melodic heart which beats with the divine.
Thank you so much for these wonderful gems
Brought me some peace in this lonely existence. If only love stopped by my hut. Alas it has not nor will it ever. All alone this lifetime
No no, No no! Love just stopped by your hut! Don't miss it now 💜💛💚💙

❤
So profound and deep...touches my core ❤️
May Allah bless all who took part inbthis exquisite work.

Hafez! Indeed it is. What a blessed, fortunate name you have been endowed with. 🧡
These are so incredibly beautiful. Thank you 🙏
So beautiful. Thank you 🙏🏻
Exceptionally beautiful. Thank you
Your videos are amazing. Thanks..
Beautiful! Thanx for uploading this! It purifies my heart and makes me light and ethereal.
He got me in the second half not gona lie xD
I Dear friend, i wasn't familiar wit these particular writings by Hafiz. They are really dynamic. Beautiful and pure of heart.
10:55 This is one of my favorites, “..or even a pure soul.” Wow.
Pure beauty, thank you.
Another wonderful recording you have shared. Keep it up. I have a weekly Rumi listening group. I'll share this one tonight.
Dear Friend, i often find a reading ive never seen before. Its so fun. This is one of them. Hafiz had such a good sense of humor.
And The Beloved also sent me You 🙌♥️🌹 Thank you ☺️ xx
Some of the most beautiful quotes... these definitley jin some of the most poignant art humankind has creat imho... the kind of stuff we would translate to share with alien scholars who wanted to deeply appreciate and comprehend our experience/journey as a species.
So grateful❤
Your reading of Hafez is unlike any other I’ve come across. If you can make more, please do
I would love to have more Hafez with this beautiful voice. Please.
Congratulations for 100k 👏🌹🌹😍
Love me some Hafiz, thank you⚘
Didn't you know? Your soul is worthier than thousands of universes And shines brighter than thousands of most beautiful stars Yet, you are deeply shaken In this fragile human body Thinking you are lost... You were never lost You are loved! Above this dying world There's neverending Life Beyond chaos there's such a perfection Immposible to grasp All-pervasive Can you think of a beauty That shatters thought? God is immpossibly merciful None of us will ever stop to exist Our eternal existence Is imprinted in Light! We are made of Love! Paradise is a word that doesn't do It justice When souls meet in Heaven.. How can you hold your tears?
Illuminatingly beautiful
Soul of the heart ❤️
Pure bliss❤
Beautiful
Thank you
so beautiful - I could listen to Jayasara read Hafiz all day
I had to listen to this 8 times before I could bring myself to say 'that is enough...'
🖤🖤
Nice ❤
Pure SHIA Muslim Religion.... HAFIZ 🖤🙏
I love your videos and I am now in love with your voice! I would like to make a little suggestion though. Would you concider some kind of notice or indication when a video ends. Like a little, soft bell sound or jingle, like you did on the guided meditation one. Since many (most?) of us listen with our eyes closed and often in meditation, it can be a bit difficult to keep track when the video ends and new one begins. Especially the ones with several different soundtracks. Many thanks! I gain a lot from your channel ❤️ It has quickly become a major resource in my life ☀️👍
Thanks for your suggestions and glad to hear you are enjoying the audios. I do try to finish each with a fading out of the music to indicate it ending but I'll see if I can do something to make it a bit more obvious. All the best
@@SamaneriJayasara On second thought, I can just turn off auto-play or download them from google disk if it is importaint for me to know when they end. I think your audios are just perfect as they are ❤️
best
I wish there was a podcast of your channel so I could listen anytime.

Where is the initial narration?... i loved it.
This is deep
💛🙏🏼✨
Earth shattering, sky splitting, divine drunkard! Yes 🙌⭐️🙏
As someone else has already also pointed out, "...'It happens all the Time in Heaven' is actually the work of Daniel Ladinsky, [from his book “The Subject Tonight is Love”] ...an American poet that uses Hafez’s name and says he is “inspired” by his works but they’re not translations at all. They’re frequently misattributed to Hafez but are unrelated to him entirely!"
sahasrara chakra as illustration, perfect :-)
It's actually the roof/ceiling of Hafiz's tomb in Shiraz. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomb_of_Hafez
Samaneri Jayasara how we know sufis were pure mystics, look up, in the buildings they made, a physical reminder of our own subtle structures
Can we get more Hafiz?
Thank you Jayasara, thank you Hafiz
From which book, of Hafiz is this? And can you any one recommend one? I want to buy one but there are so many of them.
🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼
