ABOUT THIS MODULE

Music and sacred sound were essential in Pir-o-Murshid’s life as a sacred art and as a spiritual path to audition of inner sound and developing one’s capacity of hearing the Divine Voice “which constantly cometh from within”. The format for the weekend is interactive and experiential in a retreat-like atmosphere. Practices of Murshid, Pir Vilayat, and Pir Zia are included. The program will cover teachings, practices, meditations, and includes dyads, sobhet, questions and answers.

Pir Zia encourages all candidates for leadership positions to attend the Leadership Training Modules. Completion of these Modules is a requirement for appointment as a Representative in the Esoteric School of the Inayati Order; and existing Coordinators and Representatives are encouraged to undertake this course of study as continuing education.

This module is also open to those in leadership roles, or training for leadership, in the other 5 activities of the Inayati Order, or in leadership roles in one of the member organizations of the Federation of the Sufi Message, (including Ruhaniat, Sufi Movement. Sufi Way, Fraternity of Light and Inayati-Maimuni Order). Advanced murids are welcome to attend with their guide’s recommendation.
