What About My Wood! 101 Sufi Stories by Shaykh
Taner Ansari distills the wisdom of the centuries-old
tradition of Sufi storytelling in a delightful compilation
of traditional and modern tales. The stories in What About
My Wood can be probed for subtle wisdom or simply enjoyed
for lively and often humorous entertainment. Charming
illustrations and elegance of design provide the reader
with at once a spiritual and pleasurable reading experience.
Lovers of the works of the Sufi master Rumi will especially
appreciate the elemental truths that spring out of these
captivating stories. Many of the stories are the author’s
unique renderings of traditional Sufi lore, while others
are anecdotes of the often miraculous experiences of modern
practitioners of Sufism.
Students of philosophy, psychology or more specialized
spiritual studies will find their academic regimes enriched
by the immediacy of the insights derived from these tales
rooted in the oral storytelling tradition. Teachers and
professors are encouraged to include this collection in
their syllabus as a workbook or reference volume, or as
an adjunct to any other textbook.
Perhaps the most attractive feature of What About My
Wood: 101 Sufi Stories is the fact that it is authored
with love by an authentic, living Sufi shaykh.
