ecstatic writing to delight lovers of great literature and seekers of spiritual truth alike. Drawing together the most important--and the most beautiful--poems, More...prayers, proverbs, essays, and mediations from the many Sufi traditions, Robert Frager and James Fadiman guide readers through the basics--What is a Sufi? What do Sufis do? They also profile the key teachers, artists, and philosophers of Sufism, its history, its beliefs, and its modern-day flowering. Thoughtful commentary and a foreword by Coleman Barks (translator of The Essential Rumi) are provided for the reader knowledgeable in Sufism as well as the newcomer.
