Book Overview
The old world is fast disintegrating. All around us, we can see its structures decaying and turning into dust. Now it is up to us to help build the new world. In this moving book, Reshad Feild, one of the best-known teachers of the essence of Sufism in the West, defines the task now facing us, and emphasizes that if this new world is to endure, it can only be built of Love. Giving up the pursuit of transient material concerns, we must each accept Love as the only Truth. The conscious surrender is the process he calls "alchemy of the heart".

reshad feild, man of inspiration
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
First, it was amazing that this book was on the quick pick list. I hope this opens the door to the teachings of Reshad Feild. Inspired is an overworked word, and yet this describes this book. It is written in short chapters covering a multitude of subjects such as Knowledge, Respect, Breath, Consciousness. In the chapter called Recognition, he says: "When we are grateful we can see....When we are grateful, light fills our hearts and we are able to see the world as it truly is, the wonder that it truly is. Love fills our hearts. PErhaps one day we will be in love all the time; what a possibility. Well, we can, we all can be in love. Then, wherever we stand is holy ground." (Page 42.) I was honored to attend a Zikr in Santa Fe where Reshad was the leader. It was a wonderful evening. He is a Sufi and espouses the philosophy beautifully without trying to proselytize. A wonderful book to keep, to underline, to re-read and to share.
