The inspiration behind the name

Shams-i Tabrīzī (شمس تبریزی) or Shams al-Din Mohammad (1185–1248) was a Persian poet who is credited as the spiritual instructor of Mewlānā Jalāl ad-Dīn Rumi and is referenced with great reverence in Rumi's poetic works

The Maqalat-e Shams-e Tabrizi (Discourse of Shams-i Tabrīzī) is a book in prose that seems to have been written during the later years of Shams life, as he speaks of himself as an old man.

It bears a mystical interpretation of Islam and contains spiritual advice.

Some of Shams spiritual insights:

• Blessing is excess, so to speak, an excess of everything. Don't be content with being a faqih (religious scholar), say I want more – more than being a Sufi (a mystic), more than being a mystic – more than each thing that comes before you.
• A good man complains of no-one; he does not look to faults.
• Joy is like pure clear water; wherever it flows, wondrous blossoms grow…Sorrow is like a black flood; wherever it flows it wilts the blossoms.
