The Way Of The Sufis Cannot Be

Knowledge Is Something Which You Can Use. Belief Is Something Which Uses You.

There Is A Succession Of Experiences Which Together Constitute The Educational And Developmental Ripening Of The Learner, According To The Sufis. People Who Think That Each Gain Is The Goal Itself Will Freeze At Any Such Stage, And Cannot Learn Through Successive And Superseding Lessons.

You Are Adrift While You Still Think That A Means Is An End.

Like The Bat, The Sufi Is Asleep To 'things Of The Day' - The Familiar Struggle For Existence Which The Ordinary Man Finds All-important - And Vigilant While Others Are Asleep. In Other Words, He Keeps Awake The Spiritual Attention Dormant In Others. That 'mankind Sleeps In A Nightmare Of Unfulfillment' Is A Commonplace Of Sufi Literature

The Sufis Believe That They Can Experience Something More Complete.
