Monthly Online Gatherings

Our courses and gatherings are always open to anyone with an open heart, of any and every faith background, any nationality, any age group. You do not need to be affiliated with any university, or any religious tradition. What is called for is an open heart.

These gatherings are ongoing, they happen every month, usually the third Saturday of each month at 2 pm EST, for a bit more than one hour. Once you sign up, you'll get information on how to access our next gathering, so you can join us if you like!

No. These sessions are free-standing, so you do not need to have previously signed up for any of our Illuminated Courses. The topics we talk about might pick up on content from a current course, but in a way that is understandable for anyone, inshaAllah. 

An open heart. Bring your open and curious heart. That’s it. You can join this gathering from any or no tradition at all as long as there is respect, humility, and curiosity about spiritual traditions. You do not need to have studied any of the content of practices beforehand.

Our courses & gatherings are offered in English. We will point out some of the key terminology in Arabic or Persian to highlight the poetic and spiritual significance of the language, but you do not need any previous background. 

Yes! In these gatherings, we are having live conversations, seeking fellowship, and practicing spiritual teachings in a live context.

Yes, absolutely! We will have small group gatherings to facilitate that process of getting to know each other, and learn from one another, and with one another.

No worries! We record the gatherings for you to watch them later if you would like. And you would have the option to cancel your monthly payment.

Once you sign up, the payment will continue automatically every month. You can cancel anytime and the automatic payment as well as the access to the gatherings and the member-area will end with that.

The live sessions are chances for us to share the questions and experiences, especially in the small group setting.

Depending on the quarantine and the condition of the world, we plan to resume in person gatherings and retreats in different places around the world, inshaAllah, as well as the Illuminated Tours journeys to Turkey and Morocco. Occasionally, there may be short retreats in different parts of North America that we will advertise.

We strive to have a safe, loving, and accepting community.  Every week we'll remind one another that we are not here to judge or school one another, but to sit with each other, and learn with and learn from one another.  Your whole person is honored and cherished here.
