What we’re about
Come and remember, in the depth your heart, the vastness of your true Self.
Join us every other Wednesday evening at 5:30 pm Pacific as we delve into the rich tapestry of ancient/modern Sufi teachings known as "the way of the heart." A century ago, Hazrat Inayat Khan introduced these evolving and vibrant teachings to the West. Now, we extend to you an invitation to explore the soul's journey—navigating both the struggles and challenges of this life and the transformative path to spiritual freedom.
Our meetups encompass the exploration of Sufi philosophy and perspective, complemented by immersive practices in breathing, sound, and silence drawn from the Inayati Order. This is the training of attention. These practices align with the core arenas of Inayati training: Concentration, Contemplation, Meditation, and Realization.
Guiding our exploration is John Rahm, a dedicated student of the Inayati Order for 47 years. Trained in the Inayatiyya as a Representative, teacher, and guide, John holds a Master’s degree in Transpersonal Psychology and Consciousness Studies. With decades given to the study of life, love, and the natural world, he brings holistic perspectives to our journey of self-discovery.
We invite you to join us in this transformative odyssey of self-awareness and spiritual growth.

🙏 We are each a hidden treasure, longing to be known. Our longing is to become who we really are, to release the divine qualities latent within, qualities that are muffled, obscured, forgotten. Our divine nature within must awaken to itself.
We are each entirely unique, with our own unique path. A teacher can accompany us, and offer a method for finding the Truth. This is the training of attention. Across the threshold of discovery, however, one must go alone.
”The principle thing in attaining happiness, is to purify one's mind from all things that disturb it and create inharmony."
Hazrat Inayat Khan.Happiness is our natural condition. Natural; not normal. Happiness is normally obscured. Habitual, conditioned, and unconscious thinking cloud the mind and darken the heart. The remedy is the purification of our thinking and feeling. To turn within and explore this is where the path begins...and ends. Purification/Illumination.
