About this title

Synopsis

Dissolving into Being is an introduction to Sufi philosophy, a tradition based on the

teachings of Ibn 'Arabi (d.1240), Sufism's most influential master. His voluminous

writings offer a treasury of wisdom, yet their vintage and complexity can limit their

purview to experts. To help bridge the gap between specialized studies of Sufi

philosophy and a broader readership, Dissolving into Being offers a modern

commentary on key passages of Ibn 'Arabi's foremost work, The Gemstones of

Wisdom, drawing out its profound insights on the unity of life, the reality of love

and the mysterious nature of destiny, death and what follows. In the process of

doing so, the book explores key elements of the Islamic Sufi-tradition and offers

an overview of the Sufi path of spiritual transformation, all the while pointing to the

deep resonance of Sufi philosophy with other religions and philosophies.

Although such works are much more widely available for other (what we might call) mystical

philosophical traditions, there is little available on Sufi philosophy that is not

explicitly oriented towards a strictly academic readership.

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
