Why
Sufism?
Everything
in nature, by its very nature, has a core, a glowing core that
serves it purpose whether it's a living cell with its nucleus
or our very planet sustaining the outer crust. The very core that
nature has introduced so mindfully serves a great purpose, a system
of sustenance that nourishes and nurtures its environment and
ultimate dependant. Us Human beings have a core but this core
isn't necessarily physical, it is a spiritual core or life force
that connects with us in such a wonderful and profound way so
as to control, sustain develop and nurture our every physical
aspect.
Sufis
believe this very core inside us is the key to the entire universe
and beyond. It is the inner light with in all humans that awaits
patiently to be recognised. Who are you? Why are you here and
what is your purpose on this earth? Well your purpose is to recognise
what your core is inside you! How it will speak with you how the
mirror of the divine is forever reflected inside you it is up
to you to unearth its treasure.
Allah
SWT states that His presence cannot fit in the entire heavens
and the earth but his home exists in the heart of a believer.
Sufis believe that this core is connected to us so much so that
it itself is sustained by Allah SWT and to recognise and awaken
your inner is to recognise Allahs existence.
Sufis
shroud themselves in Allahs remembrance (Dzikr) constantly saying
his name "LailahaIlAllah" there is no God, Only Allah,
then the heart begins to open up the smog and grime that cloud
the heart, the spiritual core, is released over time to present
that real sustainer of your spirit, Allah SWT himself.
