Gayatri is a prayer book designed for use by the family of Sufi lineages descending from Hazrat Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan (1882-1927). Included within are all prayers of the "Gayatri" sections of the Gayan and Vadan, as well as other prayers and remembrances, composed by Hazrat Inayat Khan, held and honored in the tradition of Inayati Sufism. Additionally, there is a section of universalist prayers and remembrances of the Inayati-Maimuni Sufi community composed by Pir Netanel Miles-Yépez and Hazrat Pir-o-Murshid Zalman Sulayman Schachter-Shalomi, for the use of that community. For this volume, the original prayers & remembrances have been edited and adapted for clarity in modern English and made gender inclusive. Notes have also been added in the back to explain context, non-English vocabulary, and the origins of various prayers.

A disciple, fool, and pious heretic, Daniel Jami weaves a map of poems, from separation to union and back again. Inviting the reader into the mythic realm of Love, Lover, and Beloved, this contemporary collection explores traditional motifs of Sufism's 'school of love, ' through an interspiritual lens, in modern American language.

Tamam Kahn's poetry carries bright exuberance, as well as empathy and sorrow. Her work is inspired by the mystical Middle East, and her time in Morocco and Syria. The poems are anchored with her research on women from early Islam to today. Anecdotes from history are mixed with today's unchosen difficulties. The reader is introduced to the remarkable Rabia of Basra (Rabi'a al-Adawiyya), eighth-century leader on the path of Unity of Being. What would it be like to meet with her today? Across the Difficult presents tales of other famous mothers such as Eve (known as Grandmother Eve in Arabia), Hagar, Sayyida Zaynab-granddaughter of Prophet Muhammad, her niece Ruqayya, and Fatima al-Fihri, founder of the great Qarawiyyin University, who changed history with her life's work. The brutal difficulties of living at this time in countries such as Afghanistan, Syria, Ukraine and other countries, are included in the final poems.Winner of The BookFest First Place award for Poetry, Spring 2024, and an International Book Award, 2024

"Alejandra is a highly respected leader and role model in both childhood education and spiritual development. Her book, Remembrance, offers us a vision of the evolution of human life on Earth grounded in a mature feminine wisdom. It is a story of the energetic power of love as a universal force behind the creation of all life. It is a story of how humanity has been created to mirror the universe to itself and how human beings are endowed with the capacity to rediscover the essence of love that is at the heart of their existence. With this rediscovery of who we really are, life on Earth is healed from the trauma of centuries of abuse."- Edward W. Bastian, Ph.D., author of InterSpiritual Meditation and Mandala: Creating an Authentic Spiritual Path "Sensitive mystic and spiritual teacher, Alejandra Warden, invites us into a richly descriptive and cellular journey back to our essential and shared nature, that of the "golden substance" of "primordial love" and Oneness. Guided by the ancestral feminine and the angelic, Alejandra serves as a conduit for a mythopoetic narrative of Earth's birthing, nonlinear knowing, embodiment, loss, and a call to remembrance. May we accept her beautiful gift of wisdom and listen deeply, particularly at this crucial time."- Juliet Rohde-Brown Ph.D., author of Imagine Forgiveness, and Chair of Integrative Therapy and Healing Practices specialization of the Depth Psychology program, Pacifica Graduate Institute
