Saturday, June 30, 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm: The Mystical Path of the Heart
An introductory evening which will explore the mystical path of Sufism.
The evening is designed to give participants an opportunity to experience some of the esoteric teachings and practices given by Hazrat Inayat Khan when he traveled to the US and Europe from India in the early 1900s.
Inayat Khan is considered a saint among the people of India in the lineage of the Chisti Order. This order uses poetry and music to render the heart open and to teach to the non-linear part of our selves.
The evening will include a short lecture and discussion followed by Zikr and the Sufi Dances of Universal Peace. Zikr is also known as the practice of Remembering: both who we are and our relationship to the Divine Being.
A subsequent series of classes to explore these teachings and practices in depth will be scheduled at the completion of the introductory series.
This class is a repeat of the June 14 and June 20 sessions.
Valerie Skonie, Hailey resident, who has been a student of Sufism for nearly thirty years, will lead these classes.
Lane Schulz will lead the Sufi Dances of Universal Peace. Lane lives in Boise where she leads the dances regularly.
There is no charge for this event. Snacks will be served after the class.
For class location and other questions please call 788-6373 and leave your email address. Directions will be emailed to you prior to the event.
