inside the shiny bubble
that is Sufi Camp
pure magic residing

through our hearts
up and out
as we soar
singing and dancing
together
forever with the Beloved

To renounce what we cannot gain is not true renunciation, it is weakness.
Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan
I grew up in a strict Mormon home where the concept of Grace is barely understood because it is limited to whatever is beyond backbreaking, heartwrenching striving...believing that Grace was available to me only after all that I could do...only trouble is there's always something left to do, and grace becomes the brass ring that one perilously and futilly reaches for…

"Suffering is a universal experience"
"Seeing the suffering in the world around us and in our own bodies and minds, we begin to understand suffering not only as an individual problem, but as a universal experience. It is one of the aspects of being alive. The question that then comes to mind is: If compassion arises from the awareness of suffering, why isnt the world a more compassionate place? The problem is that often our hearts are not open to feel the pain. We move away from i…

Today, my father is having surgery. I pray for revivification and healing for him, Inshallah. I ask all to join me in my prayers:
I throw caution to the wind
and she takes the risk
riding the upward thermals
Gliding higher than I ever dared
Out of sight I can not see her
but I know she is where she was meant to be
Closer to angels wild and free.

In dreams a dreary world I trod--
A weary vagabond alone,
Forgetting Home, set out abroad,
Lost on strange paths I was but one.
'Til, lo! a light shone cross my brow.
Its lustre warmed as noonday sun.
I reveled in sweet morning's glow
And took communion with the One.

Love is the practice of the moral of Suluk, the way of beneficence. The lover's pleasure is in the pleasure of the beloved. The lover is satisfied when the beloved is fed. The lover is vain when the beloved is adorned. 'Who in life blesses the one who curses him? Who in life admires the one who hates him? Who in life proves faithful to the one who is faithless? No other than a lover.' And in the end the lover's self is lost from his vision and only the beloved's image, the desired vision, is bef…

Don't move
Barely breathe your breath
in and out
and only in love
Until nothing else remains
and it saturates
Permeates every cell
Then and only then
Think only for the sake of Love
Breathe only for the sake of Love
Act only for the sake of Love
Speak only for the sak…

Your Love grows on
Now breathing
In Realms beyond

In science, there is an axiom that suggest that the simplest explanation of a phenomenon is often the most accurate.
What is the simplest understanding of the World Wide Web?
The World Wide Web is the physical manifestation of the sphere of thought, emotion, and culture which has, since the first appearance of life on Earth, our island home. Chardin, the French, Jesuit priest (18__-1955), first used the term noosphere to describe the sphere of thought, emotion,…

We begin in the name of Allah, who is Mercy and Compassion.
I thought it would be appropriate to begin my first post with a Bismillah.
I was raised in the Methodist church, and taken to the Baptist and Episcopal churches when visiting grandparents. In my teens, wondering what other religions were about, I began studying all the Christian religions. Disturbed by the lack of agreement among the various Protestants denominations, I then beg…
