Paths to the One
with Yaqin Aubert and Naima Khabira Brown
“The Sufi’s say there are as many paths to God as there are breaths.” - Pir Zia Inayat-Khan
There are many ways to understand the different paths, approaches, orientations to the One, the Absolute, God, Allah, Brahma. Actually, there are as many different approaches or paths as there are people, since each person is unique, and yet there are tendencies or general orientations which can be seen. Understanding these paths within the Sufi tradition can help us to be more conscious of our relationship with the One Being. A person may have a primary path their entire life, or they may have different orientations emerge throughout their life. The series will explore the paths of Creativity, Beauty, Love, Infinitude, Unity, and Illumination. We will work with practices of breath, visualization, sound to explore these inspiring realms.
Please join us to unfold these themes together.
