Notes:

The substance and meaning of Sufism


The substance of Sufism is the Truth and the meaning of Sufism is the selfless experiencing and actualization of the Truth.


The practice of Sufism

The practice of Sufism is the intention to go towards the Truth, by means of love and devotion. This is called the tariqat, the spiritual path or way towards God.


The definition of the Sufi


The sufi is one who is a lover of Truth, who by means of love and devotion moves towards the Truth, towards the perfection which all are truly seeking. As necessitated by love's jealousy, the sufi is taken away from all except the Truth.
