Presentation on Sufism
Sufism is the mystical dimension of Islam. It has been called the heart and soul of Islam. Like every form of mysticism, its goal is union with the Transcendent which in the case of Islam is called Allah (God). Reza Saberi--translator of Sufi poetry--will explain the philosophy behind Sufism, the stations of this Sufi path to God, and the effects of this form of spiritual enlightenment. One expression, in dance, of Sufi spirituality is the Whirling Dervish: a video will be shown to illustrate this.
Date: Thursday, July 26 2012
Time: 7 p.m.
Location: Lotus Studio of The Spirit Room. (111 Broadway, Fargo)
