O, friend! Nobody veils you, but yourself.
In your path there is no thorn or weed, but yourself.
You said: Shall I reach the Beloved or not?
Between you and the Beloved there is nobody, but yourself.
- Awhadoddin Kermani
Tomorrow, I will be in North Carolina for a silent Sufi retreat. Joining me will be Nur, Muhammad Jamal, Jamila, Sarmad, Barry and Irene. Caleb, who originally planned on joining us, will not be able to make it due to exams. It has been a challenging three days at work and I am ready for this introspective journey. The inner work never ends and I pray that this will be a time for some real progress for all of us.
