The Sufi path described in this book leads the seeker past ordinary
states of consciousness towards a new experience of infinitude that
is the source of the universe. In this stage there is no duality or
otherness, but instead infinitude, the Original Oneness, from which
all dualities and attributes emanate. The book is at once an
autobiography, a didactic treatise and a literary opus full of
wonderful translations of the words of earlier Sufis, as well as
the author's own poetry. It describes Shaykh Fadhlalla Haeri's life
quest to connect today's world with classical times, especially
through his meetings with enlightened Sufis all over the globe.
Shaykh Fadhlalla Haeri also addresses profound Sufi teachings
concerning the nature of humankind, the cosmos and God, using clear
and simple language to address difficult doctrinal issues as only a
master who has digested fully such knowledge could do. The book
also reveals much about the present-day Islamic world where,
despite the tragedies that are to be seen everywhere, tradition and
spirituality survive. This is a metaphysical and spiritual guide to
the Sufi path that ultimately offers insight into the meaning and
purpose of life.
