"Sufi is a name
given to a group of mystics who are lovers of God. Sufism is the ancient
wisdom of the heart. It is and it always will be. There will always
be those who need to realize God as the Beloved."
I love the way he describes Sufism LOVE and a little history
behind it and how it came to west. He talks about how it came from Troubador Poetry but was later changed to romantic love.
I was first introduced to Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee
by reading his book The Face Before I was Born.
I made a couple of drawings with ink and kept reading everything he
published. Recently, as I was working on my website I found this clip
of his talk. I want to share it with all of you who are crossing my
path. Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee is a (contemporary) Sufi teacher and author
of a number of books. Visit The
Golden Sufi Centerto learn more about his work.
Sufism
" Sufi is a name given to a band of mystics who are lovers of God."
"Sufism is the ancient wisdom of the heart. It is not limited
by form, by time or lace. It always was and it always will be. There
will always be those who need to realize God as the Beloved. There will
always be lovers of God. The Kamal Posh recognized that Mohammed knew
the silent mysteries of love. They stayed with him and became assimilated
into Islam."
