Publisher's Summary

100 Conversations with Idries Shah

Condensed from more than three million words, these conversations involve housewives and cabinet ministers, professors and assembly-line workers, on the subject of how traditional psychology can illuminate current human, social, and spiritual problems.

More than 100 tales and extracts from Sufi lore, ranging from the eighth century (Hasan of Basra) to the modern Afghan poet Khalilullah Khalili, are woven into Shah’s narratives of how and why the Sufis learn what they learn and how spiritual understanding develops and deteriorates in all societies.

Essential Treasury

Though I feel it would be presumptuous to assume that I have deeply absorbed enough of the content in this book to properly review the book in its entirety, I do feel that this particular volume of Idries Shah’s works contains essential keys for the preparation of the pre-initiate. Like a mirror, it has shown me sides of myself that I have not seen and have not wanted to see. I would say it is now very clear to me that there is definite, immediate preparatory work to do. I will be coming back to this book - probably many times. I am most grateful to have ‘stumbled’ upon it.
