Sufism,
Or Theosophy From the Standpoint of Mohammedanism.
A Chapter from a MS. work designed as a text book for Students in Mysticism.
BY C. H. A. BJERREGAARD, Stud. Theos.
In Two Parts:—Part I, Texts; Part II, Symbols.
The spirit of Sufism is best expressed in the couplet of Katebi:
“Last night a nightingale sung his song, perched on a high cypress, when the rose, on hearing his plaintive warbling, shed tears in the garden, soft as the dews of heaven.”
