    Ep. 32 – Star Wars, Yoda & Sufism
    2024/06/06

    This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/beherenow and get on your way to being your best self.

    This time on Sufi Heart, Omid Safi has a discussion on:

    • The story of Moses in the Qur’an
    • Moses’ teacher, ‘the green one’, and Yoda from Star Wars
    • How myth-makers revive spiritual traditions
    • The mythic language found in music and movies
    • How Taoists, Muslims, Christians, and more see themselves in ‘the force’
    • Everything as animated and the energy that flows through all things
    • Recognizing that we are made of the elements and of God

    “Luke and Obi-Wan, apprentice and master, this is the very stuff of the Sufi tradition, This is part of that re-enchanting that Star Wars is trying to accomplish. It’s trying to remind us that there are these mysterious ways of the heart, of the soul, of the universe, that we can still learn.” – Omid Safi
