Azim Looker

A fallible human being, like you all. People think that Sufism promotes an idea of transformation into a kind of "Superman/ woman", as "Insan-i Kamil", "The Perfect Human". But this is a conceit of Western misunderstanding - it means to be a real human being, and we are not looking to a Super-Being at the end of the Path; there is no end, nor a static perfection envisaged.
