A Sufi Master's Message: In Memoriam Ren� Gu�non

by Shaykh Abd al-Wahid Pallavicini

Overview

Bridging the gap between western intellectual traditions and Islamic mysticism, this book explains the meaning of knowledge in the orthodox line of Sufism. Following the living tradition of intellectual René Guénon, the lessons here are intended not as profiles of individual Sufi masters but rather as an expression of an Islamic school of wisdom within the contemplative dimension of Islam.
