Summary, etc. | The Sufi tradition, commonly associated with the Whirling Dervishes and the profoundly beautiful poetry of the great mystic Rumi, is introduced here in this new guide. William C. Chittick, the leading scholar in this filed, offers a compelling insight into the origins, context, and key themes of this movement. After a general overview of the tradition, he draws upon the words of some of the greatest Sufi writers - among them Ibn Arabi, Baha Walad and Rumi himself - to give a fresh an revealing perspective on the teaching and beliefs of Sufism and its proponents. Areas covered include: the history and growth of Sufism, and its relationship to Islam; the mystical and spiritual properties of music and dance; the beautiful and captivating qualities of Sufi writing, with many examples; the beliefs, practices and philosophies of Sufism as seen through the eyes of several major figures; Sufism in the modern world. This work should be of interest to anyone interested in Sufism, from those who know nothing about it to students, scholars and experts alike. |
