SUMMARY:Poetry\, Presence and Remembrance: Rumi Cafe Night with Jilani a
 nd Friends
DESCRIPTION:Poetry\, Presence and Remembrance\n\n\n\nJoin Jilani and Fri
 ends for another Rumi Cafe Night at the Soul Cafe\, the Soul Wellness Hu
 b\, Burnley Road\, Sowerby Bridge\, West Yorkshire HX6 2TL\n\nSaturday 6

 nThe Soul Cafe will be open serving deliciously healthy drinks and cakes
 \n\n£10 in advance or £15 on the door.\n\nContact Jilani with any ques
 tions.\n\nJilani Cordelia and friends are back for another Rumi Cafe Nig
 ht!\n\nJilani will share readings of Rumi’s mystical poetry\, accompan
 ied by beautiful live music\, on guitar\, viola and percussion. There wi
 ll be times of Sohbet\, or Sufi teaching through soulful conversation. J
 ilani will also lead the group in chanting Zikr and other sacred phrases
  in Arabic from the Sufi tradition.\n\nZikr means ‘remembrance’ and 
 refers to the Arabic phrase La illaha il’llah\, which could be transla
 ted as “no God but God”\, “no reality except Unity”\, “all sep
 aration is illusion”. In practicing Zikr\, we practice remembrance of 
 our inherent unity with the Divine\, recognising our human tendency to f
 orget. Chanting Zikr can be a powerful and heart-opening experience\, un
 ifying a group and harmonising the atmosphere in a vibration of grounded
 \, sacred\, loving connection.\n\nThe chants are simple and easily learn
 ed\, not unlike kirtan or bhajan\, but rooted in the Sufi tradition. Eve
 n if you don’t understand all of the words\, you will have an embodied
  experience\, which many describe as inducing feelings of joy\, inner pe
 ace and a deep sense of connection to the Beloved.\n\nThe Zikr journey c
 an pass through times of high energy and ecstasy\, usually ending in a s
 pace of stillness and silence\, resting in awe-filled experience of Unit
 y with All-That-Is.\n\nThe gorgeous Kindness Cafe will be open\, serving
  hot and cold drinks and delicious cakes\, and providing a friendly and 
 welcoming cafe atmosphere for this sacred time of sharing together.\n\nJ
 ilani is a member of the teaching circle of the Sufi Ruhaniat Internatio
 nal\, a Universal Western Sufi Order in the Chisti lineage. She travels 
 widely\, teaching in many countries including Australia\, New Zealand\, 
 India and the USA as well as across Europe. Resident in the Calder Valle
 y for nearly 30 years\, she is happy to be able to share her work near h
 ome as well.
