The Way Of The Sufis Cannot Be

You Must Empty Out The Dirty Water Before You Fill The Pitcher With Clean.

We View Sufism Not As An Ideology That Molds People To The Right Way Of Belief Or Action, But As An Art Or Science That Can Exert A Beneficial Influence On Individuals And Societies, In Accordance With The Needs Of Those Individuals And Societies ... Sufi Study And Development Gives One Capacities One Did Not Have Before.

When A Belief Becomes More Than An Instrument, You Are Lost. You Remain Lost Until You Learn What 'belief' Is Really For.

When Tomorrow Comes, Think Tomorrow's Thoughts.

One Can Give Or Withhold In A Manner Far More Effective, Sophisticated, Useful, Which Is Quite Invisible To People Who Think That Giving Or Withholding Is Done By External Assessment. If You Seek Some Mark Of Favour Or 'promotion', Know That You Are Not Ready For It. Progress Comes Through Capacity To Learn, And Is Irresistible. Nobody Can Stand Between You And Knowledge If You Are Fit For It.
