What to expect
Sufism is often said to be a flavour that can only be known by tasting it. These sessions let you experience that flavour through the invocations of the Sufi path: the dhikr, the ‘remembrance’ of God. The spiritual influx carried by these invocations purifies and illuminates the practitioner’s heart.
Paris, close by, also offers a monthly session on a Friday evening at Forum 104.
