Description
An opportunity to come together, as students under one umbrella – a time set aside for essential learning through each of the four pillars – work, study, meditation and zikr. This will be the context for reading together some sections of The Kernel of the Kernel.
The Kernel of the Kernel consists of Ismail Hakki Bursevi’s translation of key passages from Muhyiddin Ibn ‘Arabi’s Futuhat al-Makkiya, translated into English by Bulent Rauf.
The course will be facilitated by Patricia Taddei, Mark Boston, Hamid van Koten and others.
For those with genuine financial hardship please contact secretary@chisholme.org – it may be possible to offer student bursaries.
Places will be limited and depending on the response we may have to ask you to wait for a future event.
