Abstract

What" is meant by "Sufism" is not confined to the mere "practice of love", In this school, the life is understood to connote an air of "love" and the universe is seen as the representation of "God", The mystic should have a cultivating mind and a pure soul in order to absorb the waves of "Godly love", Here, the soul is considered to be "the home. of God" whose tenant is like a mirror reflecting the "truth", and an image of "God". But the legacy of "Sufism" is "love" and nothing else. This school is replete with various political, social, sociological issues and psychological considerations. As the "Sufi" is living within the society, dealing with different walks of people from different professions, groups, religions and is sensiti ve to lots of issues, he well knows how disasterous the "holy power" can be and what kind of crimes have been committed all through history in the name of God. Although he has not succeeded to eradicate or reduce injustice, at least he could introduce some rivals for the tyrants of the world called "PIR" and "REND", the tyrants ruling over bodies while the latter ruling over souls, In this school, no room is left for greed, avarice, and mercenary, and everyone is warned against yielding to materialistic world. He has opened a window to a new horizen, that of giving service to and having compassion for the people, Though "Sufi" has appreciation for science and knowledge, he reproaches the instrumental use of it; and prevents people. He assumes to be a hazard for society, like a very dangerous gun in a child's hand. He expects science to direct us towards humanity and modesty, and nothing else. Otherwise the science is a lamp in a thiefs hand. The SUFI's book is full of the experiences of the religion and the world. SUFI, however, does not want anything except "a white heart like the snow".
