Explore the Sufi Path to Inner Peace – Free Class with Grandmother Devi Tide
Even with a sincere spiritual practice, modern life can leave you mentally crowded, emotionally stretched, or longing for a more immediate sense of the Divine. When the pace around you is relentless, it can be difficult to hear the quieter wisdom of the heart.
The Sufi path of remembrance offers a different starting point. Rather than adding more spiritual effort, it invites you to return to what is already here — breath, heartbeat, presence, nature, and the sacredness woven through ordinary life.
Grandmother Devi Tide will share timeless Sufi practices of invocation, sacred song, shared silence, and contemplative meditation. She’ll also guide you through The Living Tree of Remembrance, a heart-centered practice for exploring your connection with the Earth, the living web of creation, and the Divine Presence within and around you.
The session invites you to experience spiritual remembrance as something lived rather than merely understood. Through stillness, reflection, poetry, breath, and inner listening, you’ll explore how everyday moments can become invitations to reconnect with what matters most.
Why Attend “The Sufi Path to Inner Peace”
Mental busyness, emotional stress, compassion fatigue, and the sheer pace of everyday life can make spiritual connection feel distant even when your practice matters deeply to you. This event explores remembrance as a way of returning attention to the sacred presence available in the midst of ordinary life rather than treating peace as something you must struggle to reach.
Sufi contemplative practice places direct experience at the center, using breath, invocation, sacred song, silence, poetry, and attentive presence as doorways into a deeper relationship with the Divine. Grandmother Devi’s approach emphasizes simple practices that can accompany daily life, so remembrance becomes more than an idea reserved for formal spiritual moments.
Grandmother Devi has traveled internationally with elders, healers, and wisdom keepers and has served as Head of the Sufi Healing Order in North America since 1999. Her experience brings together Sufi healing and meditative practices, the wisdom of the natural world, and a lifelong commitment to cultivating wholeness, compassion, belonging, and connection with all life.
What You’ll Learn
We’ll begin with the Sufi understanding of remembrance as a living return to the present moment, so you can explore how breath, heartbeat, and awareness become part of a contemplative relationship with the Divine. Rather than treating remembrance as simply recalling something from the past, Grandmother Devi will invite you into a practice of recognizing sacred presence here and now.
From there, you’ll be guided through The Living Tree of Remembrance, which uses the imagery of roots extending into the Earth and light flowing through existence to deepen your awareness of belonging within the living web of creation. You’ll explore this heart-centered meditation alongside invocation, sacred song, and shared silence, so the teachings can be encountered experientially rather than only intellectually.
Along the way, Grandmother Devi will draw on the poetry of Rumi and Hafiz and on Sufi approaches to inner listening, gratitude, compassion, and presence. The emphasis remains practical, which means the practices are connected with ordinary moments in nature, breathing, listening, and daily life rather than being limited to formal spiritual occasions.
