Sufism is a celebration of the love affair between the soul and God. The path of the Sufi is a journey that draws us into longing and ecstasy—into the passion and power that is within the heart. The love that is awakened in our own heart belongs to the core of creation, and is our greatest gift to life.
This extraordinary conference brings together teachers from different Sufi orders and lovers of God to express and to amplify our oneness and devotion. Together we create a container for a spiritual energy, a frequency of divine love that is needed in the West for its spiritual evolution.
The energy of divine love cannot be brought into life by any single teacher, but only when lovers of God are gathered together for the sake of the One, for the sake of the whole. Come gather together to celebrate this ancient and profound mystical tradition. Through lectures, meditation, dreamwork, dance, music, and zhikr (sacred chant) we awaken the heart's remembrance and help to bring the light of God into the world.
Extended hours. See the participant letter for more information (pdf format; must have Adobe Acrobat Reader).
