Turning Towards the Heart - Awakening to the Sufi Way
Includes diagram of shajarahs of the Naqshbandi, Shadhili, Chishti, Qadiri and Mujaddidi Orders as well as a chart listing the sufi masters of these brotherhoods with their Dates, Places of Birth and Death.
“This work, in its accessible question and answer format, offers profound insights into the practical day to day aspects (practice-oriented teachings) of the master-disciple relationship, from the lips of a living master of the Naqshabandi Sufi Order.”
-from the preface by Dr. Kenneth Honerkamp, University of Georgia
“This new book is useful both as a university classroom text and as an intimate introduction to a present-day authentic Sufi master whose spiritual lineage is directly traced back along the great silsilahs (or chains) of saints belonging to five prominent Sufi orders. In his introduction, Dr. Honerkamp makes accessible to the modern reader the wisdom presented in this magnificent contribution by a great contemporary spiritual master.”
-from Dr. Alan Godlas, Associate Professor of Religion and Islamic Studies, University of Georgia
