What can i say? Such is the power of the mystical paths;)

rakshanda, you have achieved a miracle. A couple of innocent remarks addressed to you were enough to bring back our long-lost friends! Cheers. :)

Good to see you back, ts. Please stay.

Eklavya/Kaalchakra,

May your chakras be blessed may your heart let go of the kaalak :).

Many begged me to come out of my self imposed exile, but only you managed to lure me back.

Surely the brotherly and friendly love between us is strong!

Could it be that regardless of the multiple labels we affix, we know deep down, that the source is the same?

Happy new year, my gentle hindu friend. May your fondness for magnifying differences, diminish. (ameen).

Rakshanda,

great article. Would love to read more.

rakshanda, you seem to be a wonderful person. As a seeker, you should not be interacting with a man like me. My objections to sufism are moral, logical, and deep. But that does not mean that you, a totally different person, cannot find it the path for you. As a fellow human being, I would wish peace and happiness for you, not any specific path.

Eklavya: Thank you for reading the article despite your feelings on the subject. May i ask what troubles you about Sufism?

FaisalK and Mangotree: Thanks for the appreciative comments. I'm glad you enjoyed the article.

Ejazharoon: I dont suffer from loneliness, boredom or lack of meaningful work at the moment but i am still seeking. My experiences so far have been quite overwhelming and provide me with a sense of Inner Peace. They make me happy. Is that the lure of a rabbit hole? I believe that Sufism has varied meanings for different people but it itself is so vast featuring diverse Tariqahs and modes of meditation. I find myself compelled to travel this path and it is just a matter of finding the right guide.

Rakshanda, I am one of the unapologetic enemies of sufism and, must confess, could only bring myself to glance through the article.

But you seem to have the soul of a true seeker. May you find what you are looking for, even if it is in sufism.

Best regards.

Very Well written, its more than difficult to talk of ones religious self with such dignity. Sometimes i too wonder what the sufi way is all about!!

You will find that path, my friend. Every nuance of emotion meticulously expressed; well-written.

Rakshanda:

It sounds autobiographical, if so you may be going down a rabbit hole of majalis, dars and khutbat. The trouble (as I see it) is that these things don't fix the underlying problem, such as loneliness, boredom or lack of meaningful work. You do write very well, so I hope you don;t go down that rabbit hole.
