In Sufism, the mystical branch of Islam, presence is the quality that describes a heart-filled state of mindfulness, an experience of being conscious in the present moment. It is only in this present moment, Sufi teachings reveal, that we can connect with the Divine and the Divine can live through us.Kabir Helminski is one of the world''s best recognised teachers of Sufism.

Named one of the "500 Most Influential Muslims" in the world by Georgetown University and the Royal Strategic Studies Center, Helminski and his teachings are touchstones for the growth in interest in Sufism and his books have been translated around the world. In LIVING PRESENCE, Helminski lays out the basic principles of Sufism and how these ideas can lead to the experience of presence.

In this inspiring work, readers will learn how to cultivate presence in their lives through:·Finding a balance between the outer stimuli of the world and our inner reactions to them·Harnessing faithfulness and gracefulness·Learning about the parallels between ancient spiritual wisdom and modern psychological knowledge
