All religions has their mystical sects. Islam is no different. But do you hear their wisdom? Or do you move as a sheeple? A good read about what the Sufi is: http://www.sacred-texts.com/isl/msl/msl.htm x
I know what it is - its a load of shit about fuck all that is real ! Somebody waffling on about some cartoon character called Mohammad that has a bomb for a head
Yes it is. People who put down Islam should take the time to read what flows from these gentle souls. x

Peace, Shanti, Shalom, Salam, Bright Blessings & Namaste Poem 1 The breeze at dawn Has secrets to tell you Don't go back to sleep You must ask For what you really want Don't go back to sleep People are going back and forth Across the doorsill Where the two worlds touch The door is round and open Don't go back to sleep Rumi Back To Top Poem 2 Let yourself be silently drawn By the stronger pull of what You truly love Rumi Back To Top Poem 3 Keep walking Though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within but don't move The way that fear makes you move. Rumi Back To Top Poem 4 Come to the orchard in spring There is light and wine And Sweethearts In the pomegranite flowers If you do not come These do not matter It you do come These do not matter Rumi Back To Top Poem 5 When I am with you, we stay up all night. When you're not here, I can't go to sleep. Praise God for these two insomnias! and the difference between them. Rumi Back To Top Poem 6 I have lived on the lip of insanity Wanting to know reasons Knocking on a door, it opens I have been knocking from the inside! Rumi Back To Top Poem 7 The minute I'm disappointed I feel encouraged. when I'm ruined I'm healed. When I'm quiet and solid as the ground Then I talk the low tones of thunder for everyone Rumi Back To Top Poem 8 Let The Beauty You Love Be What You Do Rumi Back To Top Poem 9 Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent person, who doesn't know what he's about to do! Rumi Back To Top Poem 10 Today, like every other day, we wake up empty and frightened. Don't open the door to the study and begin reading. Take down a musical instrument. Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground. Rumi Back To Top Poem 11 Your grief for what you've lost lifts a mirror up to where you're bravely working. Expecting the worst, you look, and instead, here's the joyful face you've been longing to see. Your hand opens and closes, and opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open you would be paralyzed. Your deepest presence is in every small contraction and expansion, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as bird wings. Rumi Back To Top Poem 12 Think that you are gliding out from the face of a cliff like an eagle. Think that you are walking like a tiger walks by himself in the forest. You're most handsome when you're searching for food. Spend less time with nightingales and peacocks. One is just a voice, the other just a color. Rumi

really someone should include beslan and all the jihadi murder committed by sufi murderers over the years http://palestinename.com/heartbreak.htm control of site is on side of screen bit oddly put together site . much of india was conquered and enslaved by sufi jihadis
Can you provide a link that mentions sufis as the cause of jihadi murder? Seems too general, much like Christians are the cause of the witch trails, crusades and inquistion.... the essence of a teaching, imho, is not to be boiled down to fringe fantacism.
The mad mehdi was a sufi you know the man who beheaded general gordon ,so were most of his army . its funny how sufism is touted as this peaceful branch of islam (mainly in the west to people who know no better ). the chechan terrorist groups that carried out beslan were sufi http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/004940.php http://www.jihadwatch.org/dhimmiwatch/archives/006184.php
A man of peace is not a pacifist, a man of peace is simply a pool of silence. He pulsates a new kind of energy into the world, he sings a new song. He lives in a totally new way, his very way of life is that of grace, that of prayer, that of compassion. Whomsoever he touches, he creates more love-energy. The man of peace is creative. He is not against war, because to be against anything is to be at war. He is not against war he simply understands why war exists. And out of that understanding he becomes peaceful. Only when there are many people who are pools of peace, silence and understanding, will the war disappear...Osho. I read The Secret and realized it didn't matter who did what or who started it. Its my mind-set that matters. To not be at war within myself or with anyone around me. To just be that pool of peace. I think it raises tha vibration all around you, maybe even the earth or the universe. LOL people around you kinda catch the wave.....
man of peace = raping children and stabbing babys like at beslan religion of peace =organising war against non belivers and critics for over a thousand years founded by a cruel warlord why does this remind me of fake men of peace like cat stevens
Not all priests are molesters, not all Muslims or Sufis are terrorists. You holding hatred in your heart is not going to change the world for the better. Everything begins with thought. Create a beautiful world. Try reading Creative Visualization by Shakti Gawain. Has all the magic and joy gone out of your world?
funny enough I just sold a copy of Creative Visualization by Shakti Gawain a few weeks ago on ebay , Ive read it your right not all sufis are terrorists but neither are they all about peace best wishes
yeah I've watched it 1,000 times. His name is Modou and plays concerts in egypt. I wish I knew more about him and his music. The comments on youtube are very interesting.
esselamunaleykum to all... i am new here... i hate hearing ppl use some awfull insults and bad words about the divine things which they have no real ýdea about and which they have never experienced... i 've been a sufi for over 15 years by now and i've seen how a different and peacefull life it provides... anyway...ýt makes me happy to see this subject here...thanks for the poems of rumi...rumi is one of my favorites and ý must be proud that he is of my ancestry as being a turkish sufi... anyone who really is interested in sufism may contact me... i will try to do my best to help...bye...
Hello ottomans, Welcome to the forum. Insults are the product of a small mind. Let those who wish to expose this embarrassing truth about themselves step forward for all to see. x
