Lecture: Sufism - A Universal ViewBy Khalil Elliott
Free admission, donations welcome.
Presentation Description:
Khalil Elliot of Ashland Sufi Heart Circle will offer an overview of his line of Sufism and of historical Sufism. During the introductory portion of the evening, Khalil will read the group and direct the remainder of the evening to what is being asked for on the subtle levels. He also encourages questions, which helps him determine the group's interests. One thousand years would be insufficient to cover this subject; so, in one evening we do what we can. Rather than using an outline or a syllabus, Khalil will work from guidance in the moment. So come - we will move together to quiet the mind and awaken the heart.
