Sufi Meditation Wellington

Purpose:
The School of Sufi Teaching, offers free instructions in the teachings of five main Sufi Orders – the Naqshbandi, Mujaddidi, Chishti, Qadiri and Shadhili - with special emphasis on the Mujaddidi silent meditation practice.

Sufi meditation will help bring energy, creativity and a lucid understanding of life to the practitioner. The practice of Sufi meditation transforms the nature of the heart and ultimately brings about a change in the very nature of the self and its negotiation of the world.

Who Should Join:
We welcome individuals of all faiths and persuasions to come and hear about the path and practices and then sit in meditation (muraqabah) to experience its effects and benefits. These meetings are intended for those living in Wellington, New Zealand and surrounding areas. New members can join by attending any of the events published bi-weekly on the Meetup platform.

If Sufism is defined as mystical or the way of the mystic, then its message addresses all peoples, not just the followers of one religion. Every faith has its own Sufism. In every nation and community there have been Sufis, although they have taken different names and adopted varying practices.
