Sufism In my examination of the world’s spiritual traditions I looked into Sufism, starting through the teachings of Gurdjieff, who had major connections with them. My initial impression was that the Sufis had a high level mystical tradition, equal to those of the Hindus and Buddhists, and more sophisticated than the Christian mystics. The Sufis spoke of self-knowledge and self-realization and the unity of all religions. However, I soon noticed an intolerance and regimentation among the Sufis that became progressively disturbing to me.Claims that the Sufis created Advaita Vedanta in India or were responsible for Zen in Japan seemed quite exaggerated.
