The Sufi Tradition in the West

Tractus

Le sheikh Muslihuddin Saadi Shirazi fut, dans le florissant XIlle siècle de Bagdad, l'un des maîtres soufis les plus célèbres et les plus respectés. Son enseignement, né de la plus pure tradition et enrichi par l'expérience de multiples voyages (de la Chine au Maroc, de la Turquie à l'Abyssinie), demeure l'un des joyaux de la mystique persane médiévale. Le Gulistan, ou jardin de roses, est son oeuvre majeure. Cette somme philosophique en vers et en prose rétique, écrite dans un style tour à tour naïf, lyrique, tendre et parfois même humoristique, initie le lecteur à une perception plus fine de la réalité. Derrière la sensualité apparente de la forme et au-delà de l'allégorie, se dévoile peu à peu la nature profonde, le "zat" de tout être et de toute chose, dont la connaissance est l'essence même de l'éveil spirituel.

<p>This book is a collection of talks given by Omar Ali Shah to study groups throughout the world during the eighties. After describing how the Sufi Tradition functions over the time span of many generations, Omar Ali Shah draws a clear and lucid picture of what is required both from a student and from a teacher in this tradition, and then goes into the various traits of character and circumstance which one develops in order to be able to implement the transformation of the self that is the basis of Sufism. The approach adopted here is based on simplicity and common sense, and even if one has no particular interests in the Sufi Tradition as such, this is a book which can help one deal usefully with various pressures and conditioning a person is subjected to in the course of contemporary life.</p>

Sufism As Therapy

Tractus Books

Ever since its first publication in 1988, this book has become recognized as a major document in 20th C Sufism, being one of the first books in which one can actually witness the process of a spiritual teaching taking place. What we have is a series of edited transcripts of a Sufi teacher talking to his pupils and laying down a baseline of references that can be incorporated into our own way of thinking, assuming we choose to do so. Just as his father Ikbal Ali Shah and his brother Idries Shah produced a body of literature, Omar Ali-Shah has produced a body of documents which reconcile our own disturbed and anguished epoch with a way of thinking and teaching that has existed since the dawn of mankind.
