Imagine cozily listening to stories which engage the imagination. Stories which resonate with one’s spiritual journey, one’s everyday life and extend from the highest reaches of our understanding to the natural cycles of our life.
Inspired by the stories from Hazrat Inayat Khan, Noor Un Nisa, Rumi, Idries Shah and other authors we shall turn to practices to further explore inner reflections and meaningfulness of these timeless tales.
Through the magic of story we see how the events are often symbolic of a passage, of a spiritual unfoldment, or of a new way to perceive experience.
Join Yaqin and Naima for timeless tales which spark the imagination, tell of life’s truths and offer insights into life.
All are welcome! Ashiqs, Murids, experienced and new travelers on the path …
