De Ziel: vanwaar, waarheen?

Door Inayat Khan

235 Pagina’s | 5e druk 2000 | Softcover | Uitgeverij Panta Rhei | ISBN 9073207037

De gelukzaligheid van het godsbewustzijn kan worden bereikt door het innerlijk leven te ontwikkelen en overal, in ieder mens en in alle omstandigheden God vertegenwoordigd te zien. Dit is een van de aanwijzingen die Soefi-mysticus Hazrat Inayat Khan ons geeft in zijn boek De Ziel, vanwaar, waarheen?, dat centraal staat in de Soefi-boodschap. In heldere, concrete beelden brengt hij hierin op een unieke manier zijn innerlijke kennis van het bestaan naar voren.

‘Wie ben ik?’ vraagt de mens, ‘wat is de oorsprong van mijn leven? Gaat het nog verder na de dood of houdt het bestaan daarmee op?’ Deze vragen zijn gesteld door mensen van alle tijden.

Inayat Khan geeft in De Ziel, vanwaar, waarheen? een boeiend inzicht, vanuit een mystiek weten, in de kringlopen die de ziel maakt van God tot God.

Het pad van ieder mens is voor hemzelf Laat hem zijn eigen verlangens vervullen, zodat hij op die manier in staat zal zijn er bovenuit te stijgen, naar het eeuwige doel.

In een Oosterse rozentuin

Door Hazrat Inayat Khan (1882 – 1927), vertaald door het Nederlands Publicatiecommitee van de Soefibeweging.

238 pagina’s | 2002 | Softcover | Uitgeverij Panta Rhei, Katwijk aan Zee | ISBN: 9076771359

Oospronkelijke titel: In an Eastern Rosegarden

In een Oosterse rozentuin bestaat uit 29 lezingen die Hazrat Inayat Khan, de brenger van de Soefi-boodschap, in het Engels gehouden heeft in 1918, 1919 en 1920. Deze nieuwe editie is een moderne en getrouwe vertaling van de eerste, geautoriseerde druk die nog tijdens het leven van de Soefi-mysticus in 1920 is uitgebracht.

In een Oosterse rozentuin werd altijd als een van de mooiste en belangrijkste delen uit de Soefi Boodschap van Inayat Khan beschouwd. De onderwerpen van de lezingen beperken zich niet tot één thema, maar bestrijken talrijke verschillende aspecten van het leven van de mens. Zowel zeer wereldse zaken als ‘Winst en verlies’, ‘De macht van de wil’, ‘Persoonlijk magnetisme’ en ‘Democratie’ worden belicht vanuit het standpunt van de Soefi-mysticus, evenals spirituele onderwerpen als ‘Geloof’, ‘Het mysterie van de adem’, ‘Geesten’, ‘De vrijheid van de ziel’ en ‘Het ideale leven’.

Lawāʼih – A Treatise on Sufism

By Nūr-ud-Dīn ‘Abd-ur-Rahmān Jāmī (1414 – 1492), translated by E.H. Whinfield and Mīrzā Muhammad Kazvīnī and with a new introduction by Seyyed Hossein Nasr.

61 Pages+ full Arabic text | First edition 1906, 2nd edition 1914, reprinted in 1928 & 1978 | Softcover | Theosophical Publishing House, London | ISBN: 722951361.

This work by Nūr-ud-Dīn ‘Abd-ur-Rahmān Jāmī is a reproduction of the 1928 edition published by the Royal Asiatic Society. It contains the full text and English translation as well as a new preface by Seyyed Hossein Nasr. Jāmī needs little introduction. He is acknowledged to be one of the greatest poets of the Persian language and ranks alongside Sanā’ī, Attār, Rūmī, and Hāfiz. He was born near Herat in 817/1414, and became a renowned scholar mastering the traditional sciences of mathematics, astronomy, philosophy, and theology. He became deeply committed to Sufism, and was an influential member of the Naqshbandiyyah Order. The spiritual instructions he was to receive in the Order from two masters, Sa’d al-Dīn Muhammad Kāshghāri and Khwājah Nasīr al-Dīn Ahrār, were so to transform his very being. that he was able to create several masterpieces of Sufism of which Lawāʼih is a fine example.

In this work he brilliantly describes the doctrines of Ibn ‘Arabī and his school which had such a profound influence on all aspects of Persian life. It is by no means simply a commentary on Ibn ‘Arabī, but as Hossein Nasr points out in his preface, ‘it is the fruit of vision made possible by spiritual discipline and the attainment of sanctity’.

From page 43:

” Mark well this subtle point – each quality

Each action that in substances we see,

On one side is attributed to us,

On one to ‘Truth’, the sole Reality. “

400 Pages | First edition 1999, revised edition 2006, incl. suggested reading lists per chapter | Softcover | Quest Books U.S.A. | ISBN: 9780835608442.

For decades, our modern society has looked to the East for spiritual guidance and renewal. Here is a guide much closer to home. Its subjects range comprehensibly from Jungian psychology to the Kabbalah and Gnosticism, and from Freemasonry and the Templars to Alchemy, Shamanism, the work of Gurdjieff, Neopaganism, Sufism and esoteric Christianity.

Authors Smoley and Kinney speak with sensible, even-handed objectivity, covering the strengths and weaknesses as well as the history and ideas of each tradition. They also end each chapter with a wealth of resources for further exploration. Whether you are just beginning to seek a spiritual practice or want to know more about a particular teaching; Hidden Wisdom is an invaluable resource for finding the Path, that is right for you.

From Chapter 5 – ‘Magicians: Sculptors of the Astral Light’ (p. 105):

” Magic is the traditional science of the secrets of Nature, which has been transmitted to us from the Magi. By means of this science the Adept is invested with a species of relative omnipotence and can operate superhumanly – that is, after a manner which transcends the normal possibility of man. “

Richard Smoley is the former editor of <em>Gnosis</em> magazine and today is editor of Quest Books.

Letters from a Sufi Teacher

By Baijnath Singh.

97 Pages | First edition 1908, revised edition 1987 | Softcover | Theosophical Publishing House, Adyar | ISBN: 8170590450.

A teacher is in reality the inner being by the side of God, in the region of Truth, clothed in Divine Mercy and Glory . . . Perfect discipleship consists in perfect Love for the beauty of the teacher’s Godly strength. O brother and sister, know for certain that this work has been before thee and me, and that each man and woman has already reached a certain stage! No one has begun this Work for the first time . . .

From page 82:

THE HEART

” There is a treasure buried in the heart of the knower, It is LOVE. A single jewel out of it is worth a thousand heavens. The guardian of heaven is an Angel named Rizwân, whereas the guardian of the treasure of LOVE is God. Know that thy merit is assured by what thou seekest. If thou worshippest to obtain heaven or avoid hell, thou worshippest thy own desires. If thou seekest or fearest an object, thou are the worshipper of that object. Thy real value depends on what is in thy heart. If thou heart is attached to God, thou art a divine man or woman. “

Perfume of the Desert – Inspirations from Sufi Wisdom

By Andrew Harvey and Eryk Hanut.

170 Pages | First Quest Edition 1999 | Softcover | Quest Books, U.S.A. | ISBN: 0835607674.

‘Before any garden or grape or wine existed, our Soul was drunk on eternal wine’.  – Rumi.

Intoxicate your Soul with Harvey’s & Hanut’s favourite Sufi teaching stories, sayings and ecstatic poetry, featuring new translations of Rumi. In the hope of awakening the sacred heart in all of us and infusing its passion into all the choices of life, this anthology has been created. Only those poems, stories or philosophical fragments are included, that have directly inspired the authors. They wanted each section to ‘smell of the desert’ and to inebriate with its fragrance. Sufi talk or instruction is never linear; Sufi poets and sheikhs will try almost anything to shock their listeners awake, will swerve from the highest philosophy to the fragment of a great ode of Hafiz or Rumi, to a story in yesterday’s newspaper, to a joke from Nasrudin.

From Chapter ‘The Inner Secret’; (p. 64):

THE SWING

” Between the posts of ‘conscious’ and ‘unconscious’

The mind has strung a swing:

On it bang all beings, all worlds

And it never stops swaying.

Millions of beings sit on it

And the sun and the moon also.

Millions of eras come and go

But the swing remains.

Everything swings!

Sky and earth, air and water

And the Beloved Himself

As He comes into form – 

Seeing this

Has made Kabir a servant. “

– Kabir.
