In this inspiring book written
specifically for the Western reader, Shaykh Taner Ansari
synthesizes his wisdom of the Sufi path for knowing and
loving God. This study of Sufism serves as a guide for finding
your purpose and acting according to it. To the Sufi, actions,
thoughts, feelings, spoken words, all transmit vibrational
patterns which produce reactions in the universe.
The goal is to understand which reactions
please the Creator as opposed to which please only one's
ego. The Sufi route to this goal is via the heart, for love
is the medium of Unity necessary for a connection between
a person and the Divine.
The book discusses the practices that open a student's inner
organs of perception to an expanded world of radiance which
is normally unseen. The Shaykh serves as the guide and protector
on this journey and the book clearly describes the responsibilities
of both the Shaykh and the Sufi student.
The ultimate goal of the Sufi path is the
purification of one's heart, a process known as "surrender,"
i.e., the achievement of complete mastery over the selfish
urgings of one's egoistic nature. Intention and sincerity
are the springboards of the surrender process—the
inner aspect which gives meaning to our outer deeds. This
book will open your understanding to the deeper meaning
of the Sufi path and its importance to both your own and
humanity's future.
