Are both of your parents Sufi?  Did they convert or were they raised Sufi?

my Mum is from Yemen she is a very devout ṣūfī-Muslīmiah i fall in and out of favor with how strict some things can be but i always have her to lean on and show me. i grew up with it, going to Mosque, salaat, dhkir, Muraqaba, fasting during the prescribed times, whirling & chanting. and there were times that i practiced it full on even wearing hijab, and i found great happiness and calming peace within it. but it is easy to get lazy and fall out of it and sometimes things happen and i cant help but to feel scorn towards Allāh, but Allāh knows that we are only human, and to be human we will err. i know one day i will find myself strong enough to pick myself back up again. i know that when i have a child, i will definitely share ṣūfīsm and its traditions with my very own family

Thank you for sharing that. I find it interesting as I have no personal knowledge or expereince with islam and especially sufi. I wonder if we have anyone raised or practicing Sikhism here..?



I like to mix my views on "god" with all of the rituals,teachings traditions of the major religions. Mostly I just insert "universal energy" in place of "god" and they all seem to make much more sense to me.

anytime :happyheart:
i was embarrassed to share that part of me here in the beginning but i have gotten over that. i was practically raised ṣūfī so if anyone has a question feel free to ask or :pm: . my Mum is Arab imigrant she is very religious. my father is white (french) born in the US he is not very religious at all. this caused a strange balance of religion in our family while i was growing up but he always supported my Mum 100% in all of her religious endevours so we pretty much did it her way

IMO the drive to separate the learnings of humanity into "religions" is a psychotic phenomenon. Why is it so hard for people to be so syncretistic?

I wouldnt call it a psychotic phenomenon. More so just a social phenomenon.  I see it on the level of educational kids shows.

People have just forgotten how to separate the teachings from the story. People take life too seriously.

i was adopted and raised in a mormon family... they stopped making me go to church at 17. what a life it's been, the extremes i've seen let me tell ya!

now my philosophy applies principles of zen buddhism, psychedelics (they are my religion. if you think this is stupid, idk, maybe you have issues?,) and all of nature, in general
