About the Book

The first accessible and broad-ranging sourcebook of key Sufi writings, Essential Sufism draws together more than 300 stories, fables, aphorisms, poems, and excerpts from the Koran that reveal the heart of Islamic mysticism. The poets and writers chosen here, including Ibn Arabi, Al-Ghazzali, Hafiz, Attar, and, of course, Rumi, will fascinate newcomers, delight old hands, and provide a matchless overview of a mystical tradition that has touched a dozen cultures and endured for more than 1,500 years.

Essential Sufism is a part of the Essential series, beautifully packaged works edited by leading authorities that feature the core texts of major religious traditions in definitive translations.

Robert Fager, Ph.D., is a psychologist, Sufi teacher, and author of two other books on Sufism, Love Is the Wine, and Heart, Self, and Soul: The Sufi Psychology of Growth, Balance, and Harmony.

James Fadiman, Ph.D., is an author, teacher, and student of Sufism. He lives in Menlo Park, California.

“An awesome and eminently profound compendium of spiritual wisdom.”
