Description

Have you wished on occasion to be clearer about the difference between Singleness and Singularity and Uniqueness and Oneness? Have you ever wondered why the aʿyān never smelt a whiff of the scent of existence even though their love had begun while they were still in the Blindness? Would you like to make better sense of phrases such as: “This relationship which is the result of the two natures is nothing other than a relationship, not of relativity but of mentation and concept?” Have you longed to dispel some of the uncertainties surrounding the subtle distinction between the Joining of the Two Arcs and the station of Or Nearer? If any of these questions has occurred to you, it is quite likely that you will find this seminar informative and interesting. If none of them has, this seminar may seem to you too technical.

Our course facilitator, Avi Abadi, has been studying the teachings of Ibn ‘Arabi, and the Fusus al-Hikam in particular, for over forty years.
