Project
Khaneghah
Following
in the footsteps of the ancient Sufis, the International
Association of Sufism is setting a schedule to build a Khaneghah,
which means "the house of time," in Northern California.
This
"House of Time," open to all Sufis from diverse
backgrounds, cultures, and orders, will act as the center
of a web that will connect and unite all the surrounding
schools and our communities. It will be a place for gatherings,
classes, mediation groups and zekr - or simply a sanctuary
from today's chaotic world. As a tool that connects us all,
the center can be used for obtaining information on Sufism
and its different schools.
To
our knowledge, this is the first association to be formed
to enable Sufis and scholars from around the world, from
many nations and traditions to establish relations and come
together in the spirit of unity and harmony.
Through
our involvement with a multitude of Sufi organizations and
orders, it has become apparent that this center is a much
needed resource for Sufis around the world. The Khaneghah
will ensure that the peace and harmony that fills the Annual
Sufism Symposium is not momentary, but permanently captured
in the walls of the Khaneghah.
Your
generous contributions are of great importance and a vital
step toward bringing together not just the different Sufi
orders, but our communities as well. Please remember that
not all contributions are monetary. If you have suggestions,
donations, professional connections, information about grants
and other resources, please contact us.
