Yunus Emre

Yunus Emre'den seçmeler

Bu sayfa sadece Türkçe olacak. İleride belki İngilizce bir benzerini de hazırlarım. Kendi seçtiğim şeyleri koyacağım. Arada bir bakın, ama bir anda çok fazla okumayın, şiirleri anlamadan, onların üzerinde düşünmeden geçmeyin.

GALATASARAY

It is the best Turkish soccer team on the Earth. There is no debate about it. It was once one of the best in the whole Europe too. Due to poor management, it suffered lots of performance losses. Also, being far away made me forget supporting my team.

I'm going back to my old days, hoping that my team will return back to its glorious days. The greatest champion: GALATASARAY!!!

iobit

This is an interesting company. They have very few but very nice products. I strongly recommend them. At the moment, I'm waiting to see their spyware defender program too.

musicopat.com

I had this idea, and as in many other things, other people with possibly more resources implemented it before me. Nevertheless, I waited a long time for this web site, and it's pretty cool. Check it out:

www.musicopat.com

It is FREE and LEGAL music that cannot be downloaded but played online. Most importantly, they have almost all the Turkish labels. Let's support them.

Yunus Emre

Yunus Emre hakkında pek çok şey koyacağım buraya. Bu ilki.

I'll put some Yunus Emre poems here, but I cannot translate the poems. I'll try to translate some other related info though. So, let's start with this one.

Sabahattin Eyüboğlu says the following about Yunus Emre:
"Despite all his religious personality and devotion to Islam, Yunus was not a man from any religion, any sect; he was not even a man of the religion. On the contrary, he was beyond all different religions, mosques, churches, sanctuaries; he was especially against strict religious people. His religion did not have a book, a worship ritual or direction. The only rule, dogma of his belief was love: the widest, limitless, the most humanist love; pure love. When you asked Yunus about his religion, his God, he would say nothing but LOVE, ATTACHMENT, and COMPANIONSHIP."
