Description:
This book recounts the unfolding of a dream and the journey that took the author from the midst of an Australian bushland paradise to the rapture of devotion at the Shrines of the Great Sufi Saints in Pakistan and India. It is a story of the yearning and searching for the Beloved, a story of love and loneliness.
The book tells of the unfolding of the author’s spiritual connection to the Sufi saints of the Indo-Pak subcontinent and to Pakistan’s legendary qawwals, the Sabri Brothers. The narrative describes how she followed a dream that led to the discovery of spiritual treasures in both Pakistan and India, and of her direct experience of being engulfed in the ecstatic music of the Sabri Brothers.
The author elaborates upon the Sufi spiritual journey, highlighting the abysses and peaks encountered in the continuing search for higher knowledge. She records her impressions of life in Pakistan where she settled in order to immerse herself more deeply in qawwali and the Sufi traditions.
