9. Divine Names: The 99 Healing Names of the One Love
Author: by Rosina-Fawzia Al-Rawi
English
288 pages
1566569877
THE PATH TO SELF-DISCOVERY AND INNER AND OUTER PEACEDivine Names is a unique contribution to understanding life and oneself on a deeper level: by learning to open to the Divine. It draws on original Arabic literature – often not available in European languages – and on the author’s many years of personal practice, teaching, and guiding others on their spiritual paths to healing, to becoming whole.
It focuses on the use of the Divine Names in dhikr, individual meditations, and healing practices. Whether we admit it or not, human beings are searchers: we want to understand; we want to know; we want to be known. Our quest may take many forms, yet ultimately it ends in nothing but pure praising of the Divine, even if this comes after our last breath.
The outside always furthers the inside because the task and the meaning of life is always about reuniting – about connecting everything on the outside to its inner truth. It is the knowledge of the heart which is always capable of uniting.

Yet character, on the other hand, is timeless. This Expansions volume explores the direct link between character and God’s all-encompassing quality of mercy, shedding light on what it truly means to reach the image of the All-Merciful.

English
384 pages
These lofty words are an antidote for anyone sickened by extremism’s poison. Considered by Rumi to be the master of Sufi mystic poetry, Attar is best known for this epic poem, a magnificent allegorical tale about the soul’s search for meaning.
He recounts the perilous journey of the world’s birds to the faraway peaks of Mount Qaf in search of the mysterious Simorgh, their king. Attar’s beguiling anecdotes and humor intermingle the sublime with the mundane, the spiritual with the worldly, while his poem models the soul’s escape from the mind’s rational embrace.
Sholeh Wolp re-creates for modern readers the beauty and timeless wisdom of the original Persian, in contemporary English verse and poetic prose.
