Dr. Seyedeh Nahid Angha, author of Principles of Sufism, another masterpiece of Sufi literature for the benefit of introducing the essence of Sufism to the Western world, is also co-founder of the International Association of Sufism and daugher of the great 20th Century Sufi Master, Moulana Shah Maghsoud. A Sufi Master herself, Dr. Angha has been practicing Sufism all her life. The Journey is an introduction to the subject of spiritual travelling which is the Sufi's experience of the Divine. This work explores many dimensions of spiritual travelling, from explaining the differences between mere philosophy and actual mystical experience, to discussing stages of the heart and the different illuminations that attend each stage, to revealing the meanings hidden in the symbolism of Sufi poetry so popular today, though frequently little understood. A fabulously written and immensely interesting book.

What a WONDERFUL book!!! This book is for any individual who has ever been interested in what the "journey" on the path of spirituality is all about.

It is ideal for a novice who simply wants to become more familiar with esoteric principles and it is perfect for any practioner who wants to find a new way of looking at things.

I would HIGHLY recommend this book for anyone who wants to become more familiar with spirituality.
