 THE SPIRITUAL ESSENCE   

 

The spiritual enssence of sufism is not just about rituals but purificationn and inner experiences

that elevates a person from material confines to spiritual heights. while many believe that death 

severs one's connection with the world sufism teaches that the spirits of saints {Awliya Allha}

continue to guide and bless the living. Imam Ghazail a renowned scholar said Death is not

liberation from the body's confinement".he emphasized that the spiritual connection with a

saint doesn't end with their passing their spirit remains a source of guidance.similarly shah

waliullah dehalvi a great indian scholar spoke of a spiritual bond [ittihad-i-ruh] formed 

between a seeker and a saint at their grave allowing the saints spiritual energies to flow 

into the seeker. sufis believe that after death a saint's spirit gains even greater power to 

influence the world. to tap into this one can practice Murakaba meditation focusing on the

saint's noble qualities and seeking their spiritual guidance.the transfer of spiritual energy

[Fayz] happens through in ikas reflection or spiritual insight. for this one needs apureheart

free from worldly distractions. AS sufis say [The heart is like amirror the more polished it

is the more divine light it reflects.
