Transcending the Ego: A Mystic's Journey in the Jungle of the Heart
This episode (Friday evening meeting, October 19, 1995) explores the Sufi path of transcending the ego through extracts from Shaykh ul Azzam Abu Anees Muhammad Barkat Ali قَدَّسَ اللّهُ سِرَّه الْعَزِيز Words of Wisdom, Manifestations of the Stages of Blessing (Vol. 2). Using the symbolic account of a journey through a dark jungle, the Shaykh unfolds stages of spiritual practice: constant zikr (remembrance of Allah), complete seclusion, patient silence, dignified non-engagement, truthfulness, and freedom from jealousy.
Guided by metaphors and Qur’anic injunctions, the narrator emphasizes total reliance (tawakkul) on Allah, the dissolution of the false ‘I’, and the realization that all causes ultimately belong to Allah alone. The episode connects classical Sufi stories and teachings—on sainthood, repentance, and annihilation of self—with practical guidance for inner transformation, culminating in an invitation to persist in these practices to attain true tawhid (unity of God).
