Sufism is the hidden spiritual wisdom of Islam. Sufis are mystics and like all mystics, their focus is inward. Their devotion is to the radiant spark of the divine within, which expands to the beloved without. My heart has become capable of every form: It is a pasture for gazelles, And a monastery for Christian monks, a Temple for idols, And the pilgrim's Ka'ba, And the tablets of the Torah, And the book of the Qur'an. I follow the religion of Love: Whatever way love's camel takes, that is my religion, my faith. -Ibn Arabi To a Sufi (and all mystics), love is the Lover (the soul) longing to merge with the beloved (the unnamable God). Throughout these pages are the words of Rumi, Ibn Arabi, and other Sufi mystics. Let their words inspire you to begin an inward journey to bring you closer to your own spark and the beloved.
