The Message Papers

Questions Concerning the Message

"What is, in brief, the Message of the Sufi Order?"

There is only one Message which comes at every period of time, whenever it is necessary, as a reminder of the same Truth which has been given again and again. It is therefore that the Sufi Order does not give any doctrines as special to Sufism. Doctrines do not belong to the Message, they belong to the Church. Every time in the world's history, whenever the Message was given, it struck a particular note.

The central theme of this Message is to produce in man the consciousness of the divinity of the human soul, it is towards this end the teaching of the Order is given.

"By what means does Sufism make alive the hearts of men?"

The more you are acquainted with the Sufi Message, the more you will feel convinced that it is not only given in words; but that behind the words there is life -- a life which is divine life, which is eternal life, a life which would make the dead alive. At this moment when the heart of the world is dead, it is the Call, a Divine Call, which is awakening the heart of humanity. His will must be done.
