  4. Sadiq, I notice your emphasis on Hazrat Inayat Khan. Do you believe, as did he, that a Sufi need not be a a committed follower of Islam? Just curious.

  5. That is really an interesting thought! I've heard it said that Death pays for our sins. so it almost sounds like its a bad thing to have a shell of a body and a name? because if you read the bible it says that the first man adam and eve died because of thier sins. the flesh is not perfect. so what kind of form does the soul have? and does it have a name?

  6. Is Hazrat Inayat Khan saying that the soul is the flesh?
