Title: Letters from Maneri: Sufi Saint of Medieval India
Author:
Edition Year: 1990
Cover: Hardback
Subject: Sufism
Language: English
Translatedby: Paul Jackson
Abstract: This classic of Sufi literature cannot be surpassed as a revelation of the inner dimension of Islam as experienced by a master of the Path. Sharafuddin Maneri, born in Bihar around 1290, is one of Indias most famous Sufi saints. Many Sufi orders came to Bihar the Chishti, Qadari, and the Naqshbandi, but Maneri eclipsed them all, emerging as a leader of lasting influence whose values are acceptable even today. The fact that both Muslims and Hindus pay tribute to him is proof of his immense popularity. Originally in Persian, the hundred letters comprising this volume were written between 1346 and 1347 to a prominent disciple, Qazi Shamsuddin. They were prized among all Sufi circles of medieval India, and admired by personalities as diverse as Mohammad Tughluq, Akbar and Aurangeb.

Title: Sufi Therapy of the Heart: A transcendent Experience
Author: David Heinemann
Edition Year: 2003
Cover: Paperback
Subject: Sufism
Language: English
Abstract: In a scholarly and impressive work drawing upon numerous sources, from Pyramid texts in Egypt, to Persian and Indian writings David Heinemann shows that this is because of a dualism between Nature and the individual self. The necessity of transcendent experience for an integrated psyche has been ignored, causing people to turn to drugs, bizarre cults and alternative forms of medicine as a substitute. The universal incidence of Self transcendence of cases of mystical death and resurrection some of which are cited indicate the transcendent nature of the self.
