The Secret
Sufi themes; secrecy as what cannot be sold, only lived.
About the work
The Secret treats Sufi secrecy as what cannot be marketed—short, oblique, allergic to self-promotion. Read when you are suspicious of spiritual branding, which you probably should be. It sits in the Sufi cluster beside Wisdom of the Sands and Perfect Master.
