Very Good but You Need more Push-Up
This is the second book of "In the Mystic Footsteps of Saints". As always, his faith is total and unwavering. But I can't help thinking about one of his sentences "...it is our own ugliness we abhor in others." (Familiarity Breeds Enlightenment). He seems to abhor the western way of life when actually we all constitute some of Allah's attributes (as he preaches). Is it possible that the ugliness he abhors, i.e. the fallout of materialism, commercialism, uninhibited revelry in sensual indulgence belonged now generally to the Islamic society that's why he sees it in the West? In this second book, his language is more refined, but I miss the simple, pristine content of the first one. He offers a lot of good insight into the Sufi Islam that I can't help but marvel at his English skill and his intelligence. I learn a lot so the Islamic way of propagating religion might not actually be bad; it's very good. I just wonder if perhaps he shouldn't be more putting his mind to the task of pushing the cart out of the rut which is the elimination of his ego. It would be a more well worth enterprise.

Good introduction to Naqshbandi path.
Good reading material for a start on the path of Sufism. For those looking for the best Sufi path to follow perhaps a little confining to Naqshbandi order. I am searching for the path leading to Imam Ali and through him to the Holy Prophet Muhammad PBUh and through the Prophet PBUh to Allah SWT Himself.

Invigorating
The gilded contents of these teachings are as precious as wish-fulfilling gems. Here, the reader will discover what true Islam is meant to be: patient, tolerant, endowed with humility, and respect even for the prophets and followers of other relions. This has softened my heart, and I dearly hope it will soften those of others.

As with all of Sheikh Nazim's books, there's more wisdom, love and humility in these pages than is possible for most of us to grasp. But it's wonderful to try.
