Ana, I came across your video while reflecting on the recent loss of my dear uncle and this book brought me back to when I was 14 when first read it. After seeing your video I decided to get a couple of copies of this book and give it to my nieces at Thanksgiving in hopes that they too find in its words of wisdom that internal peace i once found in it and agree with you it's a book of life to reference and help us reflect thought out our lives
how to win friends and influence people
You are so beautiful! and by the way Thank you for the effort to give us NEW KNOWLEDGE

I first read The Prophet a year and a half ago on a drunken night. I cried, like ugly cried, because of how beautiful that book was after every part. The Prophet changed my perspective on many things and arguably my life. Love this book so much.
Hope it made you decide to stop drinking... How can one even read in a drunk night? Half of the book you were thinking you were reading a children's tale...
@@darkEagle1977 speak for yourself bud
@@ludgeisatmcdonalds That's what I said: "I couldn't have read a book like that on a drunk night". What more should I say for myself, bud???
“Accept the seasons of your heart, even as you have always accepted the seasons that pass over your fields.
And you would watch with serenity through the winters of your grief.”
"It is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.
Therefore trust the physician, and drink his remedy in silence and tranquillity" ❤

"For love is sufficient unto love. When you love you should not say, “God is in my heart,” but rather, “I am in the heart of God.” And think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course. Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself."
There is nothing more beautiful than seeing a person being themselves. Imagine going through your day being unapologetically you.
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”
― Rumi
That's beautiful.

I am Philippe , A French unconditionned deeper lover of Khalil Gibran - I feel inner intensively each of the sentences & words from " Le Prophete " - I would enjoy reading them again & again each text , what I would enjoy & share them with all other lovers from any country , that I feel we belong together to the same brotherhood
Right? There is something about the way he writes that is so profound and immortalized that no matter which language it's translated to, the impact never wavers and the reader reads it again and again... and again.
The book had a profound impact on my life at age 21. When visiting a friend I found it on her book shelf. I have quoted it to my therapy patients many times. Also I have heard it shared in many weddings. Thank you for sharing your own insights from it.

First time I saw someone who is reviewing the book with soul
Good to see you
Agreed
Great review Ana! Loved the way you have cited several passages from the book. One of my all time favourites. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
As someone who’s reading this book and wanted more information on it, you were so educating ! Thank you !!
I have been contemplating whether to read this book after a friend strongly recommended it to me. Ana, this review of it was excellent - profound messages from Gibran explained by you in a clear and in an easy to understand way at a nice pace.
Thank you for making this video!
Thank you Ana for sharing your thoughts on this read. It's going to be on my read list . Please keep this good work going .
This is such a great summary & video!! So happy to have found some other great views taken from this masterpiece !
Just completed reading the book.... i was not expecting a review on youtube but thank god it is there... 5/5... my favourite lessons were LOVE, MARRIAGE, GIVING, CLOTHES, REASON and PASSION, FRIENDSHIP....
When he talks about our roles of creators to bring forth new life, I think of Marry and Joseph in the Bible.
Much appreciated
I just read it for the first time and cannot praise the book highly enough! I especially loved the lessons about work, love and the relationship between joy and sorrow. Soooo beautiful 😍
The chapter about work fully changed my life. The one about houses also was very eye opening once I could process it properly
@@imdabeast100 Thanks for reminding me to re-read it!
Thank you Ana. Your perception of this gem is beautiful and unique. May it inspire many, to discover their own personal views, while walking through the gates that Khalil Gibran opened.
I finished today the book, it was pretty beautiful. My favorite poems were on Children and on friendship
Thank Miss for this wonderful review. It is really an amazing book full of wisdom .I read it many years ago .
Thank you. I came here because I learned Elvis was a big reader and this was one of his books he liked.
Very wonderful takeaways, I have begun to read this book with a snail's pace.
Ana Juma..
Love you for such a loving review....
Which came out straight from the core of your heart... 👌
"If he is indeed wise he does not bid you into the house of his wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind." ---Pg. 126, The Prophet, section "On Teaching".
Yes yes yes ❤
Love it. Thank you for sharing. Just subscribed and after looking through your video titles, I am looking forward to exploring and learning more from you. Keep up the good work! The Prophet is a beautiful classic and is something that can (and should) be read over and over throughout one's lifetime so it is great to hear that you do just that. I recently ordered it for my girlfriend's birthday along with "Rumi's Little Book of Life" (you might like to look into that specific title as the translator, Maryam Mafi, is an Iranian woman thus giving it an authentic depth and richness compared to alternatives. I also ordered "The Earth Gods" by Kahlil Gibran for myself :) Namaste
Dear Ana, much appreciated the timely reminder of the interdependence of joy and sorrow, as it’s right now something I can benefit by reflecting upon. And as I face farewelling work and facing uncertain health from a degenerative condition, so many parts of the chapters spring to mind , yet the lifelong one , for me is about giving and receiving. Kahlil’s poetic wording invites and challenges me to remain open to both, as yonder field does. I have lived a life around service to others and still there are daily challenges and changes now to what I can manage, and this in turn can invoke fear control and a lack of ‘flow’. So Ana, as I meandered aroundUA-cam, finding your generous post, I thank you for your gift and receive wisdom shared. In peace, bruce
Truly appreciate your share, Bruce ❤️ I recently read the book “Bittersweet” by Susan Cain which explores the lifelong relationship between joy and sorrow. You may want to give it a try 🙂
I don't do Instagram. So thank you for posting here. I enjoy reading the prophet. Please share here whenever you get the chance it helps unfold my spiritual path.
I also love to read books and Khalil jibran is my favorite poet.this book change my thoughts as parents as parter as well as a good human.
Hi Ana, happy to see this post! It is great pleasure to read Gibran's works. Hope you have read his other works too.. and you reminded of the 'Selma' in his book 'The broken wings' .. also I had a chance to hold, touch and feel letters exchanged between him and Mary Haskell. It was such an immense joy!
Wow, that's impressive, what an honor to hold those magical pieces of paper! Just added "Broken Wings" on my reading list, thank you for the recommendation :)
Great to hear from you! Many of his works are available here including the broken wings'...

Hola Srita. Juma, me pareció muy profunda reflexión lo que realizó y la felicito por haber compartiďo su perspectiva, esa es una buena lección para los que no somos tan jóvenes para crear material que invita al análisis de obras. Mil gracias de nuevo and keep up the good work.
Greetings from Baja California, México.
there is a quotation about him which is just accurate and proper based what I've read from him; He says, "Half of what I say is meaningless, but I say it so that the other half may reach you."
That will be on my reading list 📖
I have actually read The Prophet about three times. I am currently leading a book reading / discussion group. Each of those readings reading have provided insight and a shift in thinking about one of his topics. One of my favorites is on clothes.
"And though you seek in garments the freedom of privacy you may find in them a harness and a chain." I see this as the burden of vanity especially when we purchase more clothing than we need and are always trying to keep on top of fashions & trends.
Next is the line that goes, "Forget not that modesty is for a shield against the eye of the unclean." Many a girl has been blamed that she was attacked because she was not dressed modestly. That is a sad excuse of the perpetrator who is unable to control himself.
And lastly, "Would that you could meet the sun and the wind with more of your skin and less of your raiment, For the breath of life is in the sunlight and the hand of life is in the wind." There is nothing better than the feeling of sun and wind on your skin and in your face.
This is wonderful! My podcast is on a similar theme and my first season is on Khalil Gibran and covers his works from The Madman.
Kudos to you!
Love this video. I imagine you just read it again because it’s been 2 years. Just been searching the web for people’s analysis
It's wonderful review of this book! Thanks a billion!
Just ordered the book, thank you 😊 🙏🏽
Dear Ana ! And if otherwise it’s requiring’ respected ? please ad it and oblige.
You have precisely explained it in an easy words of English and also your pace of talking is neither very quick nor slow and that’s why it made me to understand at least 45 % in order to this percent was my passing marks up to post graduations but some time it do occurs in 39 or 51 too.
Thanks a lot and
GOD BLESS YOU
JESUS KISS YOU
I can't agree more. It's a life changing...
Awww...This was great. My middle name is actually Gibran, after my father's favorite author. My relationship with my father is a little rocky, so for the longest time I never inquired much into the meaning of my middle name, nor did I know how to pronounce it haha. When I graduated highschool he gave me this book, but at the time I never took it seriously. I held onto the book the whole time and your video just sparked my interest in it again. Thank you! It's beautiful.
What a meaningful story Andre, I'm so glad to know that this video sparked your interest again! It's really worth reading :)
@@AnaJuma Thank you! I can tell you're very passionate about this book and it was satisfying to watch you share your thoughts on it. Your content is very good and thoughtful, and I look forward to watching more of it :) I also enjoy journaling and spirituality!
Beautiful ... the style is poetic... so lovely...
Thank you for this review. It is personal and very insightful in the way your discussed the book 'The Prophet'. It is certainly written from someone with a most beautiful heart. I am still having some difficulty understanding the section on Sorrow and Joy. I would appreciate any further comments from yourself or viewers on how they make sense of this. Thanks in advance.
Thank you so much for this ✨✨
Your take away on joy and sorrow is very reminiscent of Ying and Yang. Reminds me of too many names by neruda
I am watching a play about this in 2 days time. Thanks for the summary
I did not read it yet but definitely will want to after this video
Thankyou for ur lesson teacher..loved ur way of explanation..
A tear and a smile by Khalil Gibran....

Thank you so much🤩
Did you read "the road less traveled" by Scott peck?
An outstanding book is this.
I love the part which explain about beauty And a poet said, Speak to us of Beauty.
And he answered:
Where shall you seek beauty, and how
shall you find her unless she herself be your
way and your guide?
And how shall you speak of her except
she be the weaver of your speech?
The aggrieved and the injured say,
“Beauty is kind and gentle.
Like a young mother half-shy of her
own glory she walks among us.”
And the passionate say, “Nay, beauty is
a thing of might and dread.
Like the tempest she shakes the earth
beneath us and the sky above us.”
The tired and the weary say, “Beauty is
of soft whisperings. She speaks in our spirit.
Her voice yields to our silences like a faint
light that quivers in fear of the shadow.”
But the restless say, “We have heard her
shouting among the mountains,
And with her cries came the sound of
hoofs, and the beating of wings and
the roaring of lions.”
At night the watchmen of the city say,
“Beauty shall rise with the dawn from the
east.”
And at noontide the toilers and the way-
farers say, “We have seen her leaning over
the earth from the windows of the sunset.”
In winter say the snow-bound, “She shall
come with the spring leaping upon the hills.”
And in the summer heat the reapers say,
“We have seen her dancing with the autumn
leaves, and we saw a drift of snow in her
hair.”
All these things have you said of beauty,
Yet in truth you spoke not of her but of
needs unsatisfied,
And beauty is not a need but an ecstasy.
It is not a mouth thirsting nor an empty
hand stretched forth,
But rather a heart enflamed and a soul en-
chanted.
It is not the image you would see nor the
song you would hear,
But rather an image you see though you
close your eyes and a song you hear though
you shut your ears.
It is not the sap within the furrowed bark,
nor a wing attached to a claw,
But rather a garden for ever in bloom and
a flock of angels for ever in flight.
People of Orphalese, beauty is life when
life unveils her holy face.
But you are life and you are the veil.
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mir-
ror.
But you are eternity and you are the mir-
ror.
So difficult understanding the poems lol But I enjoy it very much TY🙏🙏🙏
this one was osho's fav book
I see you're working hard!
Hey!
Which application did you use for editing the video?
And, how did you understand the language? Didn't you take help from somewhere to fathom the language used?
Hey, I use Final Cut Pro.

Hi Gurfan, pls try a new book THE PROPHET PARTY also, it is also a great work.

Hello dear. Thank you. There's a sculptor/ painter called Kalil Gibran but he was a relative of the famous Kalil Gibran. The one you are talking about was born somewhere around 1880's and died around 1930'
s. Maybe he was also a painter and I'm the one who is confused. Correct me. Thank you.
Excellent analysis i liked on love n marriage
Wonderful review ❤️❤️❤️

Obrigado 🙏
it was 999 so I subscribed.
Your special Subscriber.
Haha, appreciate you, SS :)
Great Reflection.. Thanks.. :)
I also read this book recently.
BTW I have a question out of my curiosity, why the booktubers get less views on their videos even though the videos contain timeless lessons simplified ?
I would appreciate the answers by anyone.
Thank You. :)
I guess that nowadays most people prefer passive Netflix-like-watching vs flexing their inner world with a book. Therefore booktubers' public is smaller...
@@AnaJuma Yes Ana.
What do you think how this scenario may be reversed?
@@sajalvats2352 I don't think that's up to us to tell people what to do or what's best... Perhaps our role is to share the tools for people to think critically about life and from there I believe they should find their own answers and make conscious choices.
@@AnaJuma wow Ana..
That's a fresh perspective for me..
Or maybe a happy reminder.. :)
I agree with you; Let's do our thing without imposing anything and let the people choose their ways for themselves.. 👍😊
Thanks for your time.. 👍😀
Looking forward to more of u through the videos.. 😊🌻
Mr & Mrs Smith 2024 brought me here. What takeaways in the series were inspired by the book
A beautiful woman, ruminating upon beautiful poetry... you've made an amazing video!
Nice work ... even flow. Ten minutes = sub.
FRIENDSHIP IS ALWAYS A SWEET RESPONSIBILITY , NEVER AN OPPORTUNITY,,,..KHALIL GIBRAN
Hi iam from 🇮🇳 india
I don’t know if I agree.
Well I might agree partly to children not being their parents. Cause yes through them they came to be, but ultimately God is the creator.
Nice ❤️
Like you😘❤️. From Iraq
Como é que se pode ler «O Profeta» em português? Eu percebo e falo Inglês; mas, gostava de ler a obra em Português Europeu!!!
Nice
