SUFI HEALING CIRCLES
In Sufi practices, and particularly Sufi healing practices, our intention is to touch and manifest
divine qualities which are always living within us. The Universe is filled with healing power! About the Sufi Healing Circle: read more/less
Murshid
Samuel Lewis often quoted Sufi Al-Ghazzali, saying "Sufism is based on experience and not on
premises." So in our healing circles are experiential, using breath, sound, contemplation and prayer
to open and experience hidden treasures such as purification, compassion and healing power which
are in our True Nature; and we perform the Absent Healing ritual of Hazrat Inayat Khan to send
healing light to others.
If you are in serious need of healing yourself it might not be appropriate to participate in our circle
until you're improved. Please call or write to the host, to discuss your needs and preferences. If you are absent, with
your permission we can add your name to the list and send the Shaffea (healing power) out to you when we meet.
