About Shams Tabrizi
Shams-e-Tabrīzī (or Shams al-Din Mohammad, literally: Sun of Islam; 1185–1248) was a Nizari Ismaili Iranian Sufi mystic, born in the city of Tabriz in Iranian Azerbaijan, who is credited as the spiritual instructor of Mewlānā Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Balkhi, also known as Rumi and is referenced with great reverence in Rumi's poetic collection, in particular Diwan-i Shams-i Tabrīzī (The Works of Shams of Tabriz). Tradition holds that Shams taught Rumi in seclusion in Konya for a period of forty days, before fleeing for Damascus. The tomb of Shams-i Tabrīzī was recently nominated to be a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

اعلموا أننى عاشق متفان ،و لا أتورع عن العشق . رأيت كثيرا من العارفين، و ظفرت بخدمتهم ،و عرفت الفرق بين الصادق و الكاذب ، من ناحية القول و من ناحية الحركات. و اذا لم يكن العارف محمودا جدا و مختارا فإن قلبى لا يلتفت إليه،و طائر القلب هذا لا يلتقط كل حبة.
و إن نجوما كثيرة كانت تتلألأ في حياتي ،و هي جميعا إما أفلت أو توارت وراء سحب الحياة السود. أما مولانا فهو مهبط وحيي و إلهامي . لست أدﻻي ،أي بنبوع محبة هذا الرجل العظيم،ينبوع كل من شرب منه جرعة يرى في داخله شمسا ساطعة محرقة،تظهر في كانونها الحقيقة المطلقة
