O heart, sit with someone who knows the heart;
Go under the tree which has fresh blossoms.
-- Rumi

by Dr. Javad Nurbakhsh
First Edition 1992, ISBN 0-933546-49-1

Translated by Terry Graham under the supervision of Dr. Javad Nurbakhsh in collaboration with Neil and Sima Johnston.

This is a book about the stages of progress and development of the Sufi's psyche in its spiritual journey. It is the first English-language work to address and answer, within the framework of traditional Sufism, such fundamental questions as: "What is the spirit?" and "What is inner consciousness?".

Most of the prose texts and poetic works presented in the book have been translated for the first time.
