Sufi Quotes

On the Shaikh-disciple relationship: “What is Sheikh’s being? Being. What’s a disciple? Non-existence. Until a disciple ceases to exist, he is not a disciple. Though they may be possessed of learning, yet they change from state to state. You should know that all this learning bears no relationship to the interior, for the inner power makes this request: “No, let me see it!” It does not accept any one’s report.
