With our next event being at a Buddhist centre, and having had the pleasure of meeting some Buddhist friends at our last event, we would like to share this excellent talk by Robert Abdul Hayy Darr on the commonalities in Sufism and Buddhism.
Hear about the deep appreciation of Buddhist spirituality felt by Sufis throughout the ages, especially in the contemplation of the Buddha form.
Robert Abdul Hayy Darr is the author of The Spy of the Heart and translator of Mahmud Shabistari’s Garden of Mystery. He has studied Islamic spirituality for nearly 40 years. See his website for more: afghansufi.com
