Secret of the Spirit (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780976215035)

Sidi Shaykh Muhammad Sa'id al-Jamal ar-Rifai as-Shadhuli is the guide of the peace, love and mercy in the Shadhiliyya Sufi Way. He is the head of the Higher Sufi Council in Jerusalem and the Holy Land, and a teacher in the holy mosques at al-Aqsa in Jerusalem. In Secret of the Spirit Sidi Muhammad unveils many of the inner secrets to help the spiritual traveler in making her migration from the world of the creation to the world of the Creator. In this compendium of teachings given in 2007 during his visit to America, Sidi passionately calls for the human being to shed the entanglements of the lower self: "Claiming 'I' is polytheism. It is associating a partner with Allah. Stop doing that. Throw it in the ocean. Bury it under the earth. Crush it with your feet. Never look at it again." He guides the reader to take on the divine qualities and lofty ethics that create the real love and peace between all people: "Look with the eye that is full of love and mercy. Talk with the tongue that is full of love, politeness and courteous manners. Then you will be manifesting the divine qualities that Allah commanded you to manifest." Discover the truth of who you are and what you carry: "When you see a helpless person, you stretch your hand to him. But whose hand are you stretching? Is it truly your hand? No. It is the hand Allah made for you to be merciful for the poor and helpless and those people in need. It was created to distribute mercy, love and peace." "For the healer to be a true healer you must have a heart full of love and mercy and peace. This will be the secret of your ability to heal. To carry these qualities is the secret of healing".
