Know Yourself
July 14, 2019 (11am – 1pm)
The Salisbury Centre, 2 Salisbury Road, Edinburgh EH16 5AB
An introductory talk and workshop with Cecilia Twinch, translator of a new edition of this 13th century text – an explanation of the oneness of being – attributed to Muhyiddin Ibn ‘Arabi.
Course Description
‘You yourself are the object of your quest.’
This introductory talk and workshop offers the opportunity for exploration, study and discussion with Cecilia Twinch, who has recently newly translated this short 13th century text on the unity of existence from manuscripts attributed to Muhyiddin Ibn ’Arabi and also to Balyani.
The text explains, in a way that is both expansive and profound, that in order to realise your essential oneness with reality it is not necessary to eliminate your ‘separate’ self or ego because that illusory self never existed. Rather, it is necessary to know your true self in order
to realise your oneness with all being. Nothing essentially changes. When you know yourself, ignorance simply disappears and how things really are becomes clear.
‘When the secret of an atom is discovered, the secret of all created things is made clear.’
Supported by the Beshara Trust, an educational charity.
