"We seek to understand..."

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

Ah. I have yet to master the art of remaining in total focus as I complete my business (insert panicked scream) assignment , due in approximately... 3.5 hours.

I know. I am way too smart for my own good.

But I digress.

Lately, I have been interested by all the talk about sufism. This was mainly piqued by the poems I read by Rumi (thanks to nadiaries for the interesting anecdote on Rumi), and the fact that I found it to be almost... blasphemous in nature. A few searches later, I found that I wasn't alone in my opinion.

I am still dissatisfied with the answers I have got. And so as I was (still am, actually) putting the final touches on my report (why, Andre, WHY?), I looked up this interesting forum on sufism and what it really means.

To my parents: There is no need for worry; I am not about to join some gypsy troupe. You may have to worry about my phone bills, however. If you want to. ONLY, and ONLY IF you want to.

Haha.

Sufism - The Great Mystical Masterpiece

And now, back to bilateralism in Australia.

It sound impressive, but it most certainly is not fun.

Wassalam.
