AWAKENING: A Sufi Experience Ref: RED488

Pir Vilayat Inayat Khan

"Emphasizing the necessity 'to shift from...our personal point of view to the Divine point of view,' Inayat Khan encourages this "awakening in life" by enumerating the ways to reconnect the personal self with the transpersonal dimension of being. Exceptional and thoroughly detailed chapters address "Awakening and Illumination," "Beginning the Journey," "Becoming a Being of Light," "Building a Temple for the Divine Presence," and "Heaven on Earth." The chapter on "Attuning to the Masters, Saints and Prophets" is unusually insightful, with its diverse attention to Buddha, Shiva, Zoroaster, Christ, and others." - NAPRA Review. Remainder Mark.

THE ESSENCE OF RUMI Ref: REA080

John Baldock

Jalaluddin Rumi has been called the greatest mystical poet of any age, and his work compared to that of Dante and Shakespeare. Over a period of 25 years he composed of 70,000 verses of poetry on the subjects of divine love, mystic passion and ecstatic illumination. Rumi's voice leaps off these pages with an ecstatic energy that leaves readers breathless. Above all, Rumi makes plain the unbridled joy that comes from living life fully. The Essence of Rumi offers us the opportunity to overcome the limitations of our human view of the world and transform our sensory eye into the poet's all-seeing Ocean of Reality.
