  • well gnostic christianity was spread into india as well, church of st thomas stand in india .

  • No,Sufism came from Iran(ancient persia) And is believed to have been influenced by hindu mysticism and perhaps Kabbalah Judiasm. And it is of course,a spiritualist sect of Islam,very beautiful religion.

  • Bitte! dies ist eine Erneuerung des Islams!Dies hat nichts mit Islam zutun!Und alle die daran zweifeln das dies keine Erneuerung des Islam sei, stellt euch eine frage selbst!Hat dies unser Prophet auch gemacht? Folgen wir der Sunnah (Sünnet)Ich komme selber aus der Türkei aus der Stadt wo der Sufismus seine Wurzeln trägt und habe früher auch gedacht das dies normal und akzeptabel mit unserer Religion sei, doch vergessen wir nicht das der Glaube vorrang hat vor der Tradition!

  • does anyone think the sufis have their orgins with the gnostic christians?

  • Depends on how one interprets "Sufism" ... the "modern" Sufism is definitly the product of Persian mysticism ... as a contrast to the strict Arabic law-religion. That'S the reason why most of the famous Sufis - including Rumi - were Persians.

  • my beautiful culture!

  • Come, whoever you are come!

  • Buraki is right, Sufis use many many different things to reach oneness with Allah and the dervishes use spinning in certain orbital formations to do that. Of course it's not just random spinning, there's dhikr and hand formations have a certain meaning and stuff. Look it up for yourselves. I don't buy into contemporary Sufism, but I'm all for finding new and deeper ways to become closer to Allah. Beautiful video.

  • What it means "I'm white?" So am I - as an Uzbek. But I'm muslim though non-practising... Anyway, roots of sufism lie in Christianity...So first sufis were Christians...

  • jede Bewegung jede Aktion hat eine Bedeutung.

    Sufismus ist eine andere Welt.

    Komm wer du auch bist". Diese Aussage stammt aus dem 13. Jhdt.
