Excerpt from ‘The Sufi Path of Annihilation’

What is Itlak Sufism, and what is the true and greatest Jihad?

Non-dualism is the true state of being, but don’t become a bird without wings

The path of annihilation is the essence of all religion

The three that leads to annihilation: breath work, fasting, suffering

Why anyone can become a Saint

The intellectual and experiencer

Going to Nothingness and Absence
