The Sufi Science Of Self Realization

This 10-step program describes the science of eliminating the 17 ruinous characteristics of the tyrannical ego--as set forth by Sufi master Abu 'l-Hasan al-Kharqani--in order to achieve purification of the soul and unveils the six powers that lie dormant within every human heart. The path from submersion in the negative traits to the unveiling of these six powers is known as the Migration to Perfected Knowledge on the way to complete realization. In America, where false Sufi masters are increasingly prevalent, it is important that the writings and practices of authentic Shaykhs--with lineages going back to the Prophet Muhammed--are available for both the seeker as well as the professor.

The Sufi master Abu 'l-Hasan al-Kharqani said human souls possess seventeen destructive traits, resembling huge trees, whose branches are loaded with negativity. Humans were also granted six tremendous powers from the Divine. The author details the steps to eliminating the tyrannical characteristics, purifying the soul and unveiling the six powers

For those who have reached a level of understanding of the illusory nature of the world and seek to discern the reality that lies behind it, Sufi meditation--muraqabah--is explained in this book. (World Religions)

Sufi Meditation and Contemplation offers fresh translations of three classic Sufi texts from Mughal India: The Alms Bowl of Shaykh Kalimullah Shajehanabadi, The Compass of Truth by Dara Shikoh, and the Treatise on the Human Body attributed to Mu'in al-Din Chishti. These texts elucidate meditation practices and the resulting effects. All three come from the Mughal era in India, which witnessed a flowering of Sufism in innovative personalities, diverse mystical orders and bold literary expressions."Meditation is the way to instill the values in the heart, to such a depth that the heart itself is transformed. The heart then is not merely an organ in the body, and is not just on's own personal center; when properly activated through meditation, the heart opens up to reveal the very presence of God with one and with all. To find this state of loving intimacy is the advice of the Qur'an when it says, "So remember me, that I may remember you." And according to Sufi teachings, to meditate and contemplate is the way to draw God down to you and to allow yourself to be lifted up toward God." - from the foreword by Scott Kugle

A Sufi Meditation Guide for Healing and Spiritual Awakening

"This is an excellent book that explains spiritual principles and how to carry them into everyday life . . . Highly recommended."—Library Journal Sufism is a centuries-old spiritual psychology leading to presence in life. Presence is our capacity to be whole in the moment, in alignment with our deepest wisdom. With unusual clarity, this book describes how presence is different from ordinary habits of mind, and how it can be developed. Drawing on the words of the great Sufi, Rumi, as well as traditional material and personal experience, this book integrates the wisdom of Sufism with the needs of contemporary life. Living Presence offers a wisdom that is both universal and practical. It shows how we can bring spirituality and psychology into a balanced system that honors and awakens the soul. “I am pleased to give Living Presence a high recommendation: It is sober, thoughtful, and well worth deep reflection. Helminski is concerned with out interactions with each other, with cultivating love and a desire to serve the Highest through serving each other . . . a valuable emphasis in a culture like ours that tends to think of spiritual development as special and solitary experiences.”—Noetic Sciences Review by Charles Tart, Ph.D.
