This media file displays a rectangular placemat or menu from a restaurant named "Mevlana RESTAURANT", visible on a table. The item is encased in a clear plastic sleeve, causing reflections from the ambient lighting. The restaurant's logo, positioned on the left, features a stylized silhouette of a whirling dervish within a circular frame. The document presents "Mevlana's Seven Counsels" (or "7 Advices") in two parallel columns: Turkish on the left and German on the right. The Turkish title is "Mevlana'nın yedi öğüdü", and the German title is "Die 7 Ratschläge von Mevlana". The counsels, attributed to the Sufi mystic Mevlana Rumi, are aphorisms advising on various virtues: 1. Be generous and helpful like a river. 2. Be compassionate and merciful like the sun. 3. Cover the faults of others like the night. 4. Be calm in anger and irritability like a dead person. 5. Be humble and modest like the earth. 6. Be tolerant like the sea. 7. Either appear as you are or be as you appear. The presence of both Turkish and German text strongly suggests a cultural context, particularly relevant to Köln, Germany, which has a significant Turkish community. The object itself indicates a dining setting, likely indoors. No people are visible, and the time of day or weather cannot be determined.
