the great Khan speaks about Sufi Rumi


The second meeting with the great Khan

A man asked the great Khan, "Khan sahib, do you know of a holy man that I could go to?"

The Khan replied "Yes, go and see Sufi Rumi, why he's greater then God himself".

"Greater then God". The man and all the other people around him wondered what kind of a person could think such a thing. They went to Rumi, and asked him "Are you claiming to be greater then God himself?". "No, no, no, not at all, I'm just a poor man, not unlike you." said Rumi.

The men went back to the great Khan, and said we talked to Rumi, and he said he's a poor, humble man. The great Khan thundered: "What does that son of an owl know, we know" he said, pounding his chest, "he's greater then God".
