| YOGIC SPIRITUALITY AND ISLAM | |
| Sufism,
Orthodox Islam, and Yoga As there has been a notable Sufi mystical tradition in Islam, a number of people have used this to regard Mohammed as an illumined sage. Sufis like Rumi appear to have been great mystics, if not God-realized sages on par with the great yogis, and some would assume that Mohammed, whom most Sufis revere, must have been of the same understanding. This view is enhanced by the fact that today, particularly in the
West or in India, there are Sufis who proclaim the unity of all religions, and some who
believe in Karma and rebirth, practice vegetarianism, and otherwise appear more as part of
the yogic tradition than what most people, including Muslims, would consider to be
representative of Islam. |
