The Secret Of Sufism Is That It

... When We Are Talking About 'christians' And 'moslems' We Must First Make Sure That We Are Talking About People Who Have An Idea, Which Should Be More Or Less Correct, As To What The Other Is Supposed To Believe And What He Is Expected To Do As A Consequence Of That Belief.

People Who Speak Or Act In An Ordinary Fashion Are Most Likely To Be Those Who Have Been The Recipients Of Higher Experiences. But Because They Do Not Rage Around, Wild-eyed, People Think That They Are Very Ordinary Folk And Therefore Not Aware Of Anything Unknown To The General Run Of Man.

He That Is Purified By Love Is Pure; And He That Is Absorbed In The Beloved And Hath Abandoned All Else Is A Sufi.sirdar Ikbal Ali Shah.

History Is Not Usually What Has Happened. History Is What Some People Have Thought To Be Significant.

When A Belief Becomes More Than An Instrument, You Are Lost. You Remain Lost Until You Learn What 'belief' Is Really For.
