Today, like every other day,
we wake up empty and frightened.
Don’t open the door to the study, and begin reading.
Take down a musical instrument.
Let the beauty we love be what we do.
There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.
From Rumi: The Book of Love: Poems of Ecstasy and Longing, by Jalal al-Din Rumi, translated by Coleman Barks.
Please join us for Sufi Practices: Sohbet (sacred conversations), Gathas (sacred writings) & Ryazat (spiritual practices).

This series of classes will focus on helping us find our way to live our lives filled with love, while seeing beauty in all aspects of life. Teachings attached.
This class will explore the theme: Water: The Heart Quality
Classes will begin with perhaps a zikr, chant, prayer and/or wazifa practice, followed by simple breath practices and a 10-15 min. meditation. Then we will focus on the sacred writings from many different spiritual paths and teachers.
