Thus, the representatives of this school and those who are initiated have a more general idea of Sufism than those belonging to special schools, who have an idea of that particular section. Therefore you should not be surprised if one of our initiated members of the Sufi Order proved wider in outlook compared with a member of another school of Sufis, which is only a sectional school of Sufis. However, you will find the central theme the same. This I have not said in order for us to be proud of our broadness; it is only said in order that we may try in our life to keep up this ideal, and not fall short of that broad outlook and that broad ideal. Life on earth has a tendency to drag us to narrowness, so we must know that we have a continual fight all along our progress on the spiritual path.
