On the Nature of Sufi Knowledge

Sufi audiobook with Teaching Stories:This two-audiotape recording of a live lecture by Idries Shah presents his ideas about the purpose of Sufism and the method and expression of its aim. He compares Sufi education with that obtained from a university or school. He emphasizes that the learner must have some stability of mind in order to approach Sufi studies correctly. His topics cover many subjects, including assumptions that prevent understanding; the difference between Sufis and idealists or 'good' people who base their conduct, beliefs, and actions on principles; sincerity versus emotionality; familiarity with the material; and developing the right attitude towards it. The second tape in this set includes selections from Shah's Wisdom of the Idiots and Seeker After Truth read by members of The London College of Storytellers. 2 digitally-mastered cassettes, running time: approx. 3 hours
