In this compilation, Fadiman and Frager present to us the many faces of Islamic mysticism. They remind us that the spiritual path is different from the intellectual path, that a difference exists between contemplation and knowledge, that "the gnawing hunger of lonely men, is not appeased by information or facts". Paradoxically, as Bayazid Bistami affirms, "The thing we tell of can never be found by seeking, yet only seekers find it." In their aphorisms and anecdotes, the Sufis explain how, through the blessings of submission, faith, and love, one may come to know the face of the unknown. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
