Over the last three years Sufi teacher Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee has written a number of stories about returning our consciousness to the living Earth, a numinous world alive in both matter and spirit. As we travel through the darkening days of the present time there is a primal need to find a pathway back to this landscape, experienced through our senses and our dreams. These stories are both simple and radical, simple because they describe what is already around us, the wind in the trees, water flowing over stones. Radical because they point to a fundamentally different quality of consciousness, which belongs to both our distant past and our possible future. Presented here as a series, these stories are an opportunity to become immersed in this landscape, physical and imaginal, and through this shift in awareness to be able to walk towards a living future. Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee is a Sufi teacher who has specialized in dreamwork and Jungian psychology. He is author of numerous books on Sufism and spiritual responsibility in our present time of transition, including 'For Love of the Real' and 'Seasons of the Sacred,' and editor of the anthology 'Spiritual Ecology: The Cry of the Earth.' His most recent book is 'Seeding the Future: A Deep Ecology of Consciousness.'

The Messenger of Allah (S) said, 'One who proceeds on a path in the pursuit of knowledge, God makes him proceed therewith on a path to the Garden (Paradise). And, verily, the angels spread their wings for the seekers of knowledge out of delight. Verily, every creature of the heaven and the earth asks forgiveness for the seeker of knowledge, even the fish in the sea. The merit of the 'alim (the learned) over the 'abid (the devout) is like the merit of the moon over the stars on a full-moon night. The learned are the heirs of the prophets, for the prophets did not leave behind a legacy of wealth but that of knowledge. So whoever partakes of it derives a plenteous benefit. https://www.nurmuhammad.com/wiki/Shaykh_Nurjan_Mirahmadi.html more

Sufism is one of the paths that explains and guides us towards our inner spiritual being, to that part of us that is beyond the senses. It brings us to a place where there is the possibility of experiencing an entirely different way of existence. This is an inner journey that opens our hearts to the treasures found within the qualities of God. Sufism explains that to do this we need to change our focus from an elemental existence to a spiritual existence.The Sufi path teaches us that there is a place that is not part of the elemental nature we are born with, there is another place that comes from the Eternal where the qualities that exist there are kindness, love, mercy, compassion, truthfulness, and justice. Sufism is a path of love.May it come to pass that these words resonate to break the shell of illusion that covers our hearts. May these words help take us to the Eternal where truth exists, and where love and kindness exist as reality. May our path towards God be straight, and true, and easy.Musa Muhaiyaddeen more

Welcome to The Hikmah Project, a unique platform dedicated to the exploration of the world's spiritual wisdom traditions, with a special emphasis on Islamic metaphysics and mysticism. Our mission is to offer seekers of sacred knowledge an avenue to delve into mystical texts, guided by renowned experts from across the globe. Through podcasts, online courses, and events, we aim to foster a community of learning and spiritual growth.Drawing inspiration from the Qur'anic verse: أَفَلَمْ يَسِيرُوا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ فَتَكُونَ لَهُمْ قُلُوبٌۭ يَعْقِلُونَ بِهَآ أَوْ ءَاذَانٌۭ يَسْمَعُونَ بِهَا ۖ فَإِنَّهَا لَا تَعْمَى ٱلْأَبْصَـٰرُ وَلَـٰكِن تَعْمَى ٱلْقُلُوبُ ٱلَّتِى فِى ٱلصُّدُورِ'Have they not traveled throughout the land so their hearts may reason, and their ears may listen? Indeed, it is not the eyes that are blind, but it is the hearts in the chests that grow blind' (Qur'an 22:46)we recognize the profound role of the Heart (Qalb) in transcending mere rational understanding. This concept, resonating with the idea of Intellectus in Latin, highlights a supra-rational faculty of intelligence and awareness. As Ibn ʿArabī illustrates in the Fuṣūṣ al-Ḥikam, this journey is for those who are the folk of the Divine ( أَهْـلِ الله ) and the people of the Heart ( أَصْحاَبِ القْلوب )..Our focus on 'mystical' delves into the inner essence of teachings, moving beyond formalism as cautioned by Imam Al Ghazali. We aim to transcend the mere form to uncover the essence and to understand the relative in light of the Absolute.The Hikmah Project is your gateway to exploring profound works such as Rūmī's Mathnawī, Ibn ʿArabī's Futūḥāt al-Makkiyya and Fuṣūṣ al-Ḥikam, Ibn ʿAṭā Allāh al-Iskandarī's Ḥikam, Amīr ʿAbd al-Qādir al-Jazāʾirī's Kitāb al-Mawāqif, and al-Ghazālī's Mishkāt al-Anwār. These texts are not just repositories of wisdom; they are guides for the gnostic on their spiritual path.As Ibn ʿArabī says in his Secrets of Voyaging, these journeys are bridges to our essence and unique states. They remind us that we are an integral part of everything.These voyages are only bridges…that are placed for us upon which to 'cross over' to our essences and the states that are specific to us…What I have recounted to you is to remind you of what is within you…so that you will know that you are everything, in everything and part of everything'وإنما هذه الاسفار قنطر وجسور موضعة نَعبُر عليها إلى ذوتنا و أحوالنا المختصة بنافيكون هذا الذي قصصته عليك يذكِّرُك بما فيك، و ما نبَّهتك عليه، فتعلم أنك كل شيء وفي كل شيءومن كلWe invite you to join us in this enlightening journey of discovery and spiritual awakening.

This podcast takes a different approach to the Latter-day Saint 'Come, Follow Me' weekly readings through the use of a spiritual approach to scripture reading. Co-hosts Dr. David D. Peck, a Sufi Master, and Christopher Hurtado, Dr. Peck's Sufi disciple, bring their shared experience to this podcast. They invite listeners to join in their actual Sufi lessons that parallel the Come, Follow Me assignments. Their conversations model Sufi spiritual reading in real time, illustrating how Master and Disciple interact and learn together, one on one. Their purpose in creating the podcast is to encourage listeners that 'you can Sufi too!' The Universal Sufi Path is a spiritual, mystical and contemplative practice often described as a journey. Universal Sufism is not a religion. Rather, Universal Sufism is a Spiritual Path that welcomes persons of all religions or no religion at all. Our path is open to all, welcomes all, loves all. Sufi scripture study begins with a de-educational process that speaks directly to the souls of Saints and Sufis and their Scriptures. This study sets aside mere ethical or doctrinal readings through what Sufis call unlearning. Please join us on our spiritual pilgrimage, as we study the Come, Follow Me scripture assignments through spiritual eyes. more

Abu Hamid al-Ghazali, born in 1058 AD in the city of Tus in present-day Iran, was a distinguished scholar, philosopher, and Shafii jurist who served as a professor of theology at the prestigious Nizamiyya College of Baghdad. At the height of his career, he found himself in a profound internal struggle, caught between his beliefs and his true self. Choosing a path of seclusion, he embarked on a journey of personal mystical transformation. During this period of reflection, he penned several groundbreaking works that harmonized the external practices of Islam with a rich inner spirituality. Confessions of al-Ghazali (Munkidh min al-Dalal, meaning Deliverance from Error) serves as his intellectual autobiography, detailing the diverse sects and philosophies he encountered while seeking divine truth. - Summary by Zishan Sheikh more
