Suluk Global Online Course
June 2023 – March 2025
Applications Deadline Extension – January 18th, 2023
Due to a high volume of applications, we are expanding the size of the class, and will continue to admit applications on a rolling basis through January 18th, 2023.
We are happy to announce the launch of a new Suluk Global Online class beginning June 2023. See below for details. If you are interested in becoming a student of Suluk, please email suluk@inayatiyya.org.
The first Suluk Academy Global Online Class graduated successfully in June 2022 with 142 students from Turkey, India, Pakistan, New Zealand, Australia, Mexico, United States, Canada, Germany, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Norway, Scotland, Denmark and The Netherlands.
Suluk is designed for initiates, called murids, within the Inayatiyya’s Inner School. Over the course of two years, students deeply explore the fundamentals of Hazrat Inayat Khan’s school of Sufism under the rubric of Concentration, Contemplation, Meditation and Realization.
Among the topics of study are purification of body and mind, prayer, breath, the elements, light, the inner senses, the Chivalric Rules, the God Ideal, the Divine Names, the subtle centers, and the Spirit of Guidance.
A direct transmission is shared through a mix of practice, lecture, suhbat, and zikr, and held within a container of spiritual friendship.
If you are an initiate of the Inayatiyya’s Inner School and have ever desired to intensively study the teachings of Hazrat Inayat Khan (1882-1927), Suluk may be for you. Since Suluk’s founding in 2003, over 500 students have graduated from our two-year course worldwide, with something more than a conventional credential – a greater depth of self and insight into life.
For more information, including dates, cost and application process, please see the full program description here. We hope you consider becoming a future student of Suluk!
