Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee on Sufism

Posted: Wed 08/29/2012 08:00 AM
This Sunday, Oprah's sitting down under the oaks with Sufi teacher and author Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee to discuss love and the true source of happiness. As you'll see in their discussion, there are many paths to Sufism, and Llewellyn will share his with Oprah. Until then, here's a small glimpse into Llewellyn's thoughts:

"Sufism is a path of love. The Sufi is a traveler on the path of love, a wayfarer journeying back to God through the mysteries of the heart. For the Sufi the relationship to God is that of lover and Beloved, and Sufis are also known as lovers of God. The journey to God takes place within the heart, and for centuries Sufis have been traveling deep within themselves, into the secret chamber of the heart where lover and Beloved share the ecstasy of union."
