What if the path to God started with a hug from a stranger? That's how Salima Adelstein found Sufism 31 years ago, and in this episode she breaks down what this path of the heart actually is, who it's for, and why it's not just for Muslims or mystics with a long reading list.

We get into surrender, discernment, the three voices (nafs, the whisperer, and the voice of God), the practice of Tawbah as a washing rather than a punishment, mercy, and how to build what Salima calls a ship of safety inside your heart. We also talk about desire, the Dunyā, and why knowing yourself is how you know God.
