EVENT INFO:
Sufi School New York holds bi-weekly meditation sessions in Hastings-on-Hudson accessible to residents of lower Hudson Valley and upper Manhattan. `If Sufism is defined as mystical or the way of the mystic, then its message addresses all peoples, not just the followers of one religion. Every faith has its own Sufism. In every nation and community there have been Sufis, although they have taken different names and adopted varying practices.`
We welcome for individuals of all faiths and persuasions to come and hear about the path and practices and then sit in meditation to experience its effects and benefits.
Sufi meditation will help bring energy, creativity and a lucid understanding of life to the practitioner. The practice of Sufi meditation transforms the nature of the heart and ultimately brings about a change in the very nature of the self and its negotiation of the world.
The School of Sufi Teaching, New York, offers free instructions in the teachings of five main Sufi Orders – the Naqshbandi, Mujaddidi, Chishti, Qadiri and Shadhili - with special emphasis on the Mujaddidi silent meditation practice.
Please join us in Hastings-on-Hudson to meet with the representatives of the School of Sufi Teaching New York. They can answer any questions you may have about the meditation and practices. We will also sit in silent meditation as a group, so that you may have a first hand experience of the meditation on the heart.
Beginners are welcome.

7:00-7:15pm Introduction for beginners
7:15-7:50pm Silent Meditation (Muraqabah)
