Honoring the Elders
On a pod I am in (The Visionland) I discovered today that Barin, the moderator, knew of a man I met back in the early 70's in SanFrancisco, "Sufi Sam". Small world! Here's a bit from the page about him I found, and you can read more if you like!
"I had heard of the Sufi Samuel L. Lewis a long while before I met him. He had been described to me by a not-so-reliable source as an old man who went after young chicks, and "got them all hooked on dervish dancing." I'd not passed judgment based on a rumor, but wondered how a man in America who called himself a Sufi, could actually be one. It would be like a man calling himself "pure"; a pure man probably would not do such a thing.
More than a year later I met two disciples of "Sufi Sam"-otherwise known as Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti in Sufi circles of Pakistan, India, and Egypt, or as He Kwang in the circles of Zen Roshis. I was greatly impressed by their bearing and thus was led to a meeting with the man himself. "

Very small world indeed. I lived in Sufi SAMs home in San Francisco, The Mentor Garden.
I have been an initiate in The Sufi Ruhaniat International for many years, the order that grew out of Sufi SAM's work. Sufi SAM's home.
