An innovative look at the interplay between the mystical traditions of Sufism and Hasidism from a leading practitioner-scholar.

In The Merging of Two Oceans, Pir Netanel Miles-Y�pez follows his In the Teahouse of Experience with a new collection of talks, laying the foundations for understanding the historical and spiritual connections between Sufism and Hasidism, two of the world's great mystical traditions. Through a masterful weave of storytelling and scholarship, Miles-Y�pez explores a series of significant 'meetings' between these two traditions in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, details his own role in the formation of a new Sufi lineage connected with Hasidism, and offers a veritable bouquet of potent teachings drawing on the wisdom of both traditions. The Merging of Two Oceans is a boundary-pushing book that will fascinate and inspire admirers of these mystical traditions and their teachings, as well as spiritual seekers from all religious backgrounds.

The Merging of Two Oceans was published by Albion-Andalus and is distributed by Ayin Press (via Publishers Group West).
