Aspects of Sant Mat is about a spiritual path known as The Path of the Saints. This mystic path teaches the way to God-realization through the guidance of a living Master who has achieved that goal. The book is an explanation of some terminology connected with Sant Mat explained by energies from other dimensions in a poetic and philosophical style.
Sant Mat, otherwise known as the Path of the Saints or Surat Shabd yoga, is a spiritual path that transcends all religions. Through its teachings, many of the mystic concepts expressed in the great religious texts of the world are explained. Sant Mat has a terminology all of its own which becomes familiar as one follows the teachings.Through her energy readings, Beryl has accessed the meanings of these terms from the perspective of other energetic worlds and transcribes them in this small volume in a poetic yet succinct style awash with unexpected metaphors and exquisite allegory.For those initiated into Sant Mat, the most important task is to sit daily in meditation in order to reach god-realization. Anyone attempting this goal will know how difficult it is to discipline oneself to take the time for meditation in a world wildly demanding our attention at every turn. We are distracted constantly to do everything but sit.Any device, in media or print, which can help us subdue the worries in our mind and inspire us to meditate is invaluable.This beautiful book entreats us to remember God and the Master, and pulls us towards the knowledge that meditation is our most important task.It is hoped that by reading it, followers of this path will be inspired to sit for the allotted time without having to struggle so much against the dictates of their minds.Anyone who follows this path will find here a treasure trove of insight, inspiration and encouragement.And for those who come into this space for the first time, this is a doorway opening to a new world of thought and philosophy that may or may not make any sense but will certainly calm the mind and feed the soul.

SEVEN 'SHAHS' OF SUFI POETRY Selected Poems Mas'ud Shah, Shah Ni'mat'ullah, Shah Da'i, Qutub Shah, Shah Latif, Bulleh Shah & Nur 'Ali Shah Translation & Introduction Paul Smith Mas'ud Shah (1048-1122) originally came from Hamadan. In the beginning he was at the court of the prince of Ghazneh and governor of India Sayfu'-daula Mahmud and quickly progressed in wealth and honour. When he was forty he was thrown into prison after being wrongfully accused along with his patron of treachery by Sultan Ibrahim. He became a 'Servant of God' or a Sufi and a bit of a hermit. His famous Habsiyyat, (prison-songs) are among the most interesting poems in the Persian language. Shah Ni'mat'ullah (1330-1431) was the founder of an order of Sufis that is today the largest in Iran. As well as a Sufi Master he was a poet who at times used 'Sayyid' as his takhallus or pen-name. He was influenced by Ibn 'Arabi and Hafiz.. He composed many prose works on Sufism and his Divan contains over 13,000 couplets, mostly ghazals and ruba'is. Shah Da'i (1406-1464) was born and passed away in Shiraz. He was initiated into Sufism by Abu Ishaq Bahrami known as 'The Shaikh of Four Books', a leader or representative of Shah Ni'mat'ullah. Among Shah Dai's works are a number of risalahs (Essays) including interpretations of Koranic verses, a translation of a short work of Ibn 'Arabi. Qutub Shah (1565-1611) was the fifth sultan of the Qutub Shahi dynasty of Golconda in South India. He founded the city of Hyderabad. Qutub Shah was a scholar of Arabic and Persian.

He was also a mystic or Sufi poet. Shah Latif (1689-1752) was a Sufi Master and is considered by many to be the greatest poet of the Sindhi language. His book of poetry is called the Risalo. His shrine is located in Bhit and attracts hundreds of pilgrims every day. He is the most famous Sindhi poet and Sufi. Bulleh Shah (1680-1758) was a Sufi poet who composed in Punjabi and settled in Kasur, now in Pakistan. His Spiritual Master was Shah Inayat. The poetic form Bulleh Shah used is called the Kafi, a style of Punjabi poetry used not only by the Sufis of Sindh and Punjab, but also by Sikh gurus. Nur 'Ali Shah (1760-1796). The 36th Qutub or Perfect Master or 'Pole' of the Ni'matullah Sufi Order was born in Isfahan.
