The Secret Of Sufism Is That It

Banality Is Like Boredom: Bored People Are Boring People, People Who Think That Things Are Banal Are Themselves Banal. Interesting People Can Find Something Interesting In All Things.

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 Sufi Way Is Through Knowledge And Practice, Not Through Intellect And Talk.

One Cannot Learn From Someone Whom One Distrusts.

The Human Being, Whether He Realises It Or Not, Is Trusting Someone Or Something Every Moment Of The Day.
