“What doesn’t kill you makes you wiser” said the zen student. “Only when you learn to let go.” The senior added. “Is it? No, you’re not supposed to let go completely, are you? You have to learn the lesson, in order not to make the same mistake again.” “You have to let go in mind, not in memory. Letting go doesn’t mean you forget the whole thing, including the lesson. It just means you no longer hold on to any angsts from the incident, no longer think about it.” “If you don’t think about it, mull over it, squeeze every unforgettable pain out of it, then how would you get the lesson at all? I just wanna make sure I’m doing the best by all means to avoid such a pain again. ‘Cause my heart - it can’t afford another stroke. I don’t wanna miss the lesson. I wanna know why and from where and since when things have gone wrong and everything, and I wanna correct it the next time. I don’t wanna be a fool again.” “Friend, that’s not a very wise way to get wise, indeed. Unlearn. Make mistakes. Be a fool. If it helps. The thing is to not get caught in thoughts about it again. You must not think about it while not forgetting it either. Wisdom is not gained by overthinking and over-analyzing something that can’t be analyzed with an unwise mind.” “Then it’s a vicious circle! You have to be wise to get wiser? How ironic! I don’t wanna be a fool and make the same mistakes, so I have to painstakingly think about it and try to avoid it the next time. I think it works since I already know well why I got this way. I just can’t control the emotions associated with it, and I don’t know what exactly to do to get it gone once and for all, for it keeps turning back from time to time, and even though I’ve known it pretty well, I seem unable to do anything about it when it shows up.” “Then you’re not really wiser. You’re just more knowledgeable. Thinking can scratches but a thin surface of the issue. It doesn’t truly help you correct mistakes. In fact, you made the mistake because you were absent-minded. So as long as you’re still absent-minded, you will keep making unnecessary mistakes, no matter how many (Cont in cm) #zen #mindfulness #monologue #innerpeace #serenity #peaceful #zenvibes via Instagram ift.tt/2yMCEI5

INDIAN ACADEMY SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES celebrated Achievers' Day 2017
“The key to realizing a dream is to focus not on success but significance and then even the small steps and little victories along your path will take on greater meaning” - Oprah Winfrey
IASMS strives to provide opportunities for students to participate in student impromptu speaking, debates, Business Plan presentations and cultural programs, all of which focus on overall student development. These small initiatives trigger confidence and the essence of team spirit that play a vital role in shaping the future of our MBA students.
14th June 2017, marked the Achievers Day celebrations recognizing the efforts of the students who excelled in various academic and non-academic inter class MBA competitions. The program was presided over by our honorable Chairman, Dr. T. Somasekhar. The program included a brief report of M.B.A. department activities presented by our Director, Dr. Rajasekar. This was followed by a beautiful video highlighting major activities organized by the department in the current semester. The prizes to the winners of various events were handed over by our Chairman and our Director. In his presidential speech our Chairman, Dr. T. Somasekhar emphasized on how education is exploring oneself and not merely confined to knowledge accumulation. As long as we consider ourselves a student all our life, we would benefit from learning the new and unlearning the old was the wisdom that he shared with our students. The event concluded with the students expressing their wholehearted appreciation and positive feedback for the events organized.
In this work I explore the stories of women only once removed from the bonds of slavery, when millions of African-Americans fled the South in search of a better life in a “Great Migration" that would forever change the face of America. Many fear teaching history's truth about systemic racism may engender shame, but for me the true shame is having to unlearn a history that tells less than the whole story. A more complete history brings back the voices of those who have been intentionally silenced. It is time, in the words of the Black National Anthem, to "lift every voice."
Using 100 year old historical portraits which often feel strikingly modern, along with period documents, textures from my drawing and paintings, layered with pages from a 1919 antique book, "The Trees of Pennsylvania," I hope to create images that give voice to stories too long silent and restore dignity to women striving to escape their chains, both literal and figurative, while exploring the layering of time and memory as these women went on to create wide-growing family trees, putting down roots in fertile new lands.
🌿 The 11 Universal Foundations of Sufism
« the great pillars, the outer and inner laws »
1 - The Principle of Tawhid: The Unity of God
All existence begins and ends in Tawhid. It is the heartbeat of Sufism, the first and final revelation whispered into the soul before birth: There is no reality but God. Everything else, form, name, idea, is a reflection, a shadow cast upon the mirror of the Infinite.
Tawhid is not merely a doctrine to be accepted; it is an experience to be unveiled. It is the dissolving of duality, the burning away of separation. The seeker does not discover God as something outside himself; he awakens to the truth that he has never been apart. The drop remembers it was always the ocean.
To know Tawhid is to pierce the veil of multiplicity. Mountains, faces, stars, desires, all are expressions of a single consciousness unfolding itself in infinite variety. The mystic sees God everywhere because he has erased the illusion of “elsewhere.” There is no other place, no other time, no other being, only the Eternal, playing every role.
In this realization, worship transforms into wonder. The tongue grows silent, the heart becomes a temple. Every breath becomes remembrance (dhikr), every act becomes prayer, and every instant becomes sacred. Love is no longer an emotion between two, it is the recognition of the One loving Itself through countless mirrors.
Tawhid also carries a secret of immense responsibility: if all is One, then every thought, every word, every gesture resonates through the whole. To harm another is to wound the divine body; to serve another is to heal the Beloved. The mystic walks gently upon the earth, aware that each step falls upon the face of God.
The highest Tawhid is silence, not the absence of sound, but the stillness where there is no “I” left to speak. It is the state where the wave remembers: I am not separate from the sea.
And in that remembrance, all opposites collapse: light and shadow, joy and sorrow, birth and death, all dissolve into the single, boundless Reality that forever whispers through creation:
“I was a hidden treasure, and I loved to be known.”
That is Tawhid: the One knowing Itself through the infinite dance of becoming.
2 - The Principle of Ma’rifa: Divine Knowledge
If Tawhid is the awakening to the One, Ma‘rifa is the knowing of the One, not through the mind, but through the unveiling of the heart.
It is not learning; it is remembrance. Not study, but intimacy. Ma‘rifa is the light that dawns when reason falls silent and the soul begins to see with the eyes of God.
Ordinary knowledge (‘ilm) lives in books and tongues, it divides, compares, names. But Ma‘rifa lives in silence and presence, it unites, dissolves, reveals. The scholar says, “I know about God.” The gnostic whispers, “I know only God.”
This divine knowledge cannot be taught; it must be tasted. It is the wine that burns and heals, the secret that reveals itself only to a heart emptied of pride. The more one unlearns, the more one remembers. The mirror must be polished until it reflects only the Face of the Beloved.
Through Ma‘rifa, the mystic perceives the world as scripture, every leaf a verse, every breath a revelation. The sun becomes a teacher of radiance, the night a lesson in surrender, the beloved a doorway into eternity. Nothing is without meaning, everything speaks in the language of the Infinite.
But this knowing is not mere ecstasy; it carries the gravity of transformation. To know God is to become what one knows. The knower, the known, and the knowing merge into one current of divine consciousness. The self dissolves, like salt in the sea, and only awareness remains, vast, luminous, and eternal.
The Sufi masters say: “He who knows himself knows his Lord.” For to gaze deeply into one’s own being is to discover the same spark that set the stars aflame. When the heart realizes this, it ceases to seek outwardly. Knowledge becomes presence. Worship becomes vision.
Ma‘rifa is thus the sacred remembrance of who we truly are fragments of divine awareness awakening to their origin. It is not achieved through effort but received through surrender, not built by intellect but revealed through love.
And when the veil finally lifts, the seeker smiles in wonder, whispering the secret that has always been true:
“There was never a path, for I was already home.”
3. The Principle of ‘Ishq / Mahabba: Divine Love
If Ma‘rifa is knowing God, then ‘Ishq is being consumed by Him. It is the fire at the heart of every revelation, the secret pulse of creation itself. ‘Ishq is not love as the world knows it, it is a sacred madness, a burning that purifies everything false until only the Beloved remains.
In Sufi tradition, love is not an emotion; it is the divine force that moves galaxies, the perfume that flows from the heart of the Eternal. The lover is not separate from the Beloved, he is a wave remembering the ocean it came from. When the Sufi speaks of love, he speaks of annihilation: the melting of “I” into “Thou,” the dissolution of every boundary between soul and source.
Mahabba is the gentler face of this mystery, the love that nurtures, embraces, and reveals the beauty of divine mercy. ‘Ishq is its blazing twin, the love that destroys illusions, that leaves the seeker naked before God. Together they form the breath of creation, the inhalation and exhalation of divine yearning.
The path of ‘Ishq is both ecstasy and agony. The heart expands until it can contain the Infinite, and in that expansion, it shatters. Every longing, every tear, every silence becomes an offering. The lover’s pain is sacred, for it is the proof of life, the echo of God calling Himself back into Himself.
In the alchemy of love, the ego burns to ash, and from those ashes rises the pure fragrance of the soul. The mystic no longer says, “I love God,” but simply, “Love moves through me.” In that moment, even the distinction between lover and Beloved vanishes. The drop falls into the ocean and discovers it was never separate.
‘Ishq is the hidden fire behind all worship, the reason the stars shine, the secret motive of existence. The universe was born out of divine longing, “I was a hidden treasure,” says the Hadith Qudsi, “and I loved to be known.” Thus, love is the first cause and the final return.
To live in ‘Ishq is to live in surrender, to dance on the edge of annihilation with a smile. The Sufi’s heart becomes the Kaaba where God dwells, and every breath becomes remembrance.
When love has completed its work, nothing remains but light, radiant, tender, eternal. And the lover, once consumed, becomes the flame itself.
“Love is not a path to God, it is God walking toward Himself through your heart.”
4 - The Principle of Tawakkul: Trust and Total Reliance upon God
Tawakkul is the stillness that follows surrender, the deep, unwavering trust that life itself is guided by the hand of the Divine. It is not the resignation of the defeated, but the serenity of one who has placed his entire being in the ocean of God’s will.
The Sufi who practices Tawakkul walks through fire without fear, for he knows that the flame itself burns only by God’s permission. He plants seeds without anxiety, knowing that the harvest belongs not to his effort but to the mercy that sustains all growth. To rely on God is to rest in the rhythm of the Infinite, to breathe in harmony with the unseen wisdom that governs all things.
In Tawakkul, the heart releases its grip on control. It no longer clings to outcomes, nor trembles before uncertainty. The world ceases to be a battlefield of cause and effect, and becomes instead a garden of divine orchestration. What comes is accepted as gift; what leaves is blessed as completion.
This trust is not blind, it is illuminated by inner knowledge. The mystic knows that behind every hardship hides compassion, behind every delay hides perfect timing. Even suffering becomes a bridge to grace. The soul that relies upon God is never truly alone, for it has learned the sacred secret: that the Eternal never abandons what He has created.
Tawakkul begins when effort ends, but it does not reject effort, it sanctifies it. The Sufi acts, but he acts without attachment. He gives his best, and then lets go completely. His work becomes a prayer, his waiting becomes worship. For him, trust is not a feeling; it is a way of living, a continual remembrance that every breath, every movement, every outcome flows from the Source.
To live in Tawakkul is to walk through storms and remain calm, to lose everything and still smile, to fall and still whisper Alhamdulillah “All praise belongs to God.” It is to understand that when all supports crumble, only Truth remains.
The heart that trusts fully becomes transparent, like a mirror through which divine light passes freely. Fear dissolves, doubt fades, and peace takes root. In such a soul, the Divine works effortlessly, for nothing resists His flow.
“When you let go of everything, you do not fall, you are carried.”
Tawakkul is that divine carrying, the silent assurance that every step, even in darkness, is guided toward light.
5 - The Principle of Ikhlāṣ: Sincerity and Purity of Intention
Ikhlāṣ is the secret fragrance of the soul, invisible, but it is what gives all deeds their scent before God. It is the purification of motive, the burning away of every trace of ego until only the desire to please the Divine remains.
To live in Ikhlāṣ is to act without audience, to speak without performance, to love without condition. It is to do good not for recognition, nor for reward, nor for fear of punishment, but because goodness itself is the language of the Beloved. Every prayer, every gesture, every breath becomes pure when intention is cleansed of self.
The Sufi knows that a single act done with sincerity outweighs a thousand done for display. The heart must be stripped of vanity, of the subtle hunger to be seen as virtuous. For even the smallest whisper of pride clouds the mirror through which God’s light would shine. The true seeker therefore polishes his intention as the alchemist polishes gold, until no reflection remains but that of the Divine.
Ikhlāṣ is not achieved through suppression, but through remembrance. When the heart remembers its Source, it naturally turns away from pretense. It no longer needs the world’s approval, for it is filled with the quiet certainty of divine gaze. In that gaze, all masks fall.
In the path of Ikhlāṣ, even silence becomes an offering, even failure becomes a hidden success, if the motive behind it is pure. The Sufi prays not to be seen praying, but to dissolve in the act of prayer itself, to vanish into the presence of the One for whom all worship exists.
True sincerity is freedom. It frees the seeker from the tyranny of appearances and the chains of self-consciousness. When intention aligns perfectly with truth, the soul moves effortlessly, like water flowing downhill, no resistance, no pride, no deceit.
“Actions are judged by intentions,” said the Prophet, and the mystics understood this as a cosmic law. The universe responds not to form, but to essence; not to what is done, but to why it is done.
To walk in Ikhlāṣ is to live as a clear flame, burning without smoke, illuminating without claiming credit for the light. Such a being becomes a vessel of divine will, a servant whose every act is worship, whose every silence is praise.
In the still heart of Ikhlāṣ, God alone remains, and that is the highest purity.
6 - The Principle of Ṣabr: Patience and Endurance
Ṣabr is the strength of stillness, the quiet heroism of the heart that does not break when storms arise. It is not mere waiting; it is steadfast surrender, the art of remaining centered while the world trembles and the soul is tested by fire.
In Sufism, Ṣabr is a sacred alchemy. Through it, pain becomes purification, delay becomes preparation, and loss becomes revelation. The patient heart does not resist the unfolding of divine will, it listens. It trusts that beneath the weight of every trial, there lies the seed of mercy.
To practice Ṣabr is to walk with grace through uncertainty. It is the courage to let time ripen what cannot yet be understood. The impatient mind cries, “Why now?” but the heart of Ṣabr whispers, “In due time, all will bloom.” Just as winter hides the promise of spring, hardship conceals the gift of transformation.
Patience in the Sufi path is threefold:
Patience in obedience, when devotion becomes difficult;
Patience in restraint, when desire pulls toward the forbidden;
Patience in adversity, when fate seems merciless.
In all three, the seeker learns to surrender the ego’s timeline to the rhythm of the Divine.
The Prophet said, “Patience is illumination.” Indeed, Ṣabr is the inner lamp that burns when all outer light fades. It teaches that faith is not proven in ease, but in endurance. Each trial is a conversation between the soul and God, asking only one question: “Will you still trust Me?”
For the one who answers yes, every wound becomes a window. The heart expands instead of hardening. Suffering turns into sweetness, for the patient one sees beyond appearances he perceives that every pain is a hand pulling him closer to the Beloved.
The Sufi does not rush divine timing. He walks in rhythm with eternity. He understands that even silence and delay are forms of guidance. Ṣabr is not resignation; it is the active faith that keeps breathing through uncertainty, that continues to plant seeds though rain has not yet come.
In the end, patience is love enduring time. It is the soul’s way of saying: “I trust the hand that wounds me, for it is the same hand that heals.”
Through Ṣabr, the seeker becomes unshakable, rooted like a mountain, fluid like a river, and luminous like dawn after the longest night.
7. The Principle of Riḍā: Contentment and Acceptance
Riḍā is the calm after the storm, the fragrance that remains when surrender has burned away resistance. It is not passive resignation, but a radiant acceptance, the deep peace that arises when the soul says, “Yes” to what is, without fear, without complaint, without the shadow of why.
In Sufism, Riḍā is the summit of faith. Where Ṣabr (patience) endures the test, Riḍā embraces it. It is to look upon destiny not with endurance, but with affection, to see God’s handwriting even in the pages we wish had been unwritten. The one who reaches Riḍā no longer asks the world to bend; he bends toward the will of the Divine and finds harmony in its unfolding.
Riḍā is not born from ignorance of suffering, but from intimacy with it. The mystic accepts pain, not because it is pleasant, but because he sees Who sends it. His joy is no longer tied to gain or loss, but to presence, the awareness that every moment, whether clothed in light or shadow, carries the face of God.
To live in Riḍā is to awaken from the illusion of control. It is to rest in the rhythm of divine orchestration, where everything, even heartbreak, serves a secret purpose. The Sufi knows that the Beloved hides in every decree, whispering, “Trust Me, even this.”
Riḍā transforms the heart into a mirror that reflects only serenity. Where others see misfortune, the contented soul sees opportunity: a chance to love more purely, to detach more deeply, to remember more completely. The river does not protest the curve of its path, it flows. Likewise, the soul of Riḍā flows through both abundance and deprivation with equal gratitude.
This state is not achieved through effort alone; it is the fruit of love ripened by surrender. First comes Tawakkul (trust), then Ṣabr (endurance), and finally Riḍā, the flower of acceptance that blooms in the soil of faith.
The Prophet said: “When God loves a servant, He tests him. If he endures, God chooses him. If he is content, God draws him near.”
Thus, Riḍā is not just peace with fate, it is peace as fate. The seeker no longer lives in opposition to what happens; he becomes one with the flow of divine decree. In that stillness, all suffering is transfigured into meaning.
In Riḍā, the heart ceases to struggle and begins to sing, for it has found its rest not in circumstance, but in God.
8. The Principle of Dhikr: Remembrance of God
Dhikr is the pulse of the soul, the eternal whisper that bridges the finite and the Infinite. It is more than repetition of names or phrases; it is a living, breathing awareness of God permeating every thought, every breath, every heartbeat. In the quiet of dhikr, the world fades, and only the Presence remains, a luminous thread connecting the seeker to the Divine.
In Sufism, Dhikr is the alchemy of consciousness. Each remembrance dissolves the veils of ego, the illusions of separation, and the chains of forgetfulness. The tongue, the heart, the mind, all become instruments vibrating with the melody of unity. Words are not mere sounds; they are sparks that ignite the soul, kindling an intimacy with God that transcends intellect and sight.
To practice Dhikr is to awaken to the omnipresence of the Beloved. The world does not cease, yet every particle hums with divine significance. The sun that rises, the wind that whispers, the laughter of a child, all become mirrors of God’s names. In this state, nothing is profane; all is sacred, a tapestry threaded with the consciousness of the Infinite.
Dhikr is also the path of transformation. The heart, once heavy with desire, envy, or fear, is purified by constant remembrance. Each invocation is a drop of divine nectar, washing the soul clean, expanding awareness, and dissolving the boundaries of self. Through Dhikr, the seeker learns that the inner world shapes the outer: by remembering God, he becomes a vessel of divine love, patience, and mercy.
The Prophet said: “Shall I tell you of something better than fasting, prayer, and charity? It is the remembrance of God.” Here lies the secret: the simplest act, repeated with devotion, has the power to unlock eternity.
To live in Dhikr is to walk awake in every moment. Speech, silence, work, rest, all are infused with sacred consciousness. Time itself becomes a river of remembrance, and the heart, once scattered, becomes a sanctuary where God is ever-present.
In Dhikr, the soul learns to see, hear, and feel the world through the lens of the Divine, until every breath becomes a song of union.
9. The Principle of Tazkiyah an-Nafs: Purification of the Self
Tazkiyah an-Nafs is the sacred art of inner alchemy, the process by which the soul is refined, polished, and elevated toward divine proximity. In Sufism, it is the journey from the base self, laden with ego, desires, and illusions, to the purified heart, luminous with clarity, compassion, and surrender.
The nafs, or self, is both a battlefield and a garden. Left untended, it breeds anger, greed, and fear; cultivated with care, it blossoms with virtues: humility, patience, love, and insight. Tazkiyah is the disciplined practice of uprooting all that clouds the spirit, dissolving attachments, and releasing the chains of worldly distraction. It is both subtle and profound a conscious, unrelenting striving to align every thought, word, and action with the Divine will.
This purification is not an abstract ideal; it is experiential. Every challenge, every inner struggle, every reflection upon one’s faults is a tool of transformation. The seeker learns to confront jealousy with contentment, anger with patience, pride with humility. Like a sculptor revealing the form hidden within stone, Tazkiyah reveals the divine essence concealed within the self.
The path of Tazkiyah requires vigilance and sincerity. Regular self-accounting (muhasaba), prayer, meditation, fasting, and acts of service act as purifying fires, burning away egoistic impurities and illuminating the heart. It is a journey that unfolds gradually, layer by layer, often imperceptibly, until the soul resonates with the clarity of divine truth.
To live in accordance with Tazkiyah an-Nafs is to make the self a mirror of God’s attributes. In this purified state, the heart no longer reacts blindly to the world but responds with wisdom, mercy, and conscious presence. The seeker learns that outer transformation is inseparable from inner work: only by refining the self can one truly reflect the divine in action.
Through Tazkiyah, the soul becomes a sanctuary, and the heart, once heavy with desire, radiates the light of divine harmony, embodying the unity, love, and purity that all creation seeks.
10. The Principle of Muraqaba: Watchfulness and Meditation
Muraqaba is the sacred art of conscious presence, the attentive vigilance of the heart and mind upon the Divine. It is the practice of stillness within motion, the gentle observing of one’s inner landscape while remaining attuned to the eternal reality that permeates all things. In Sufism, Muraqaba is both the lens and the lamp: it reveals the hidden currents of the soul and illuminates the path toward God.
To engage in Muraqaba is to cultivate a state of inner awareness where distractions, illusions, and fragmented thoughts are acknowledged and released. It is not mere contemplation, nor idle reflection, but an active, watchful attentiveness, a meditative discipline in which the seeker witnesses the self, the ego, and the subtle play of desire without attachment. Every thought, every emotion, every impulse is observed as it arises and passes, like clouds moving across the sky of consciousness.
Through this practice, the heart becomes a mirror, reflecting divine presence in all its subtlety. The seeker learns to discern between transient impressions and eternal truths, to distinguish between the whisperings of ego and the voice of the soul. Muraqaba sharpens perception, deepens intuition, and nurtures a profound inner silence where the Divine can be intimately experienced.
In daily life, Muraqaba is woven into every action: walking, speaking, working, and breathing become acts of sacred mindfulness. This constant watchfulness transforms ordinary moments into gateways of spiritual insight, revealing the interconnectedness of all creation and the ever-present guidance of God.
The true mastery of Muraqaba is not found in prolonged stillness alone, but in the alchemy of presence, maintaining awareness amid the flux of life, embodying patience, compassion, and humility. Through this meditative vigilance, the seeker gradually dissolves the veils of selfhood, attaining clarity, tranquility, and a deep resonance with divine will.
Through Muraqaba, the heart becomes a sanctuary of awareness, the mind a vessel of clarity, and the soul attuned to the eternal rhythm of God’s presence in every breath, every moment, and every act.
11. The Principle of Adab: Sacred Manners and the Elegance of the Soul
Adab is the embodiment of grace, the cultivation of a refined and sacred conduct that mirrors the divine order. In Sufism, it is far more than etiquette; it is the alignment of behavior, speech, and thought with the eternal principles of respect, humility, and harmony. The seeker who practices Adab treats every interaction, every word, and every gesture as an opportunity to reflect the beauty of the soul and the presence of God.
At its core, Adab is the art of reverence: reverence toward God, toward creation, and toward oneself. It transforms ordinary actions into acts of devotion. Speaking becomes poetry, listening becomes attentive care, and movement becomes the rhythm of mindfulness. It is through Adab that the heart polishes itself, shedding arrogance, impulsiveness, and heedlessness.
This principle teaches that external manners are inseparable from internal states. True elegance of soul arises from a heart attuned to divine awareness. Politeness without sincerity is hollow; respect without consciousness is empty. Adab demands the harmonization of inner intention with outward expression, so that every act resonates with dignity, compassion, and sacred presence.
The seeker of Adab navigates life with mindfulness, treating all beings as reflections of the divine. The lowliest creature, the humblest gesture, the smallest word, all are approached with care and awareness. In this way, the world becomes a mirror of one’s inner refinement.
Through Adab, the soul learns to move with grace, the heart to act with respect, and the life of the seeker becomes a living testament to the elegance and sanctity of divine conduct.

It’s been said – spoken by the unlearned who spew a continuous narrative of white supremacy – that the African had no history, no culture, and were incapable of developing sophisticated art or society. This image showcases the beautiful creativity, technical know-how, and sophistication of 16th Century Benin bronze art. This is one of many examples of art produced by ancient Africans. #AfricaWillRise #OneAfricanGiant (25PIANKHI © 2020 All Rights Reserved)
