Sufi Celebration:
The Hidden Angles of Life

UC Berkeley

November 17, 2007

On Saturday November 17th, at the Wheeler Auditorium at UC Berkeley, MTO Sufi Association presented a Sufi Celebration titled ”The Hidden Angles of Life” based on the book with the same name written by Professor  Shahmaghsoud Sadegh Angha.

With over seven-hundred attendees, this sold-out event was filled with delightful Sufi Zikr, live music, enlightening speeches, graceful Movazeneh, and beautiful Sufi love songs and poetry. The audience participated in a relaxing Tamarkoz (Sufi meditation) exercise.

Attendees were provided with a glimpse into the way of Sufi, an ancient wisdom and an inner serenity. They also enjoyed gourmet refreshments at the end of the program.

Mayer of Berkeley, Mr. Tom Bates, captured the main purpose and mission of this event and MTO Sufi Association in general in his letter, an excerpt of which follows:
“I wish to applaud the MTO Sufi Association, an international organization with the mission to apply the Sufi principles of self-knowledge, love, unity, peace, and charity to our lives, communities, and environment, for all their hard work.  Their efforts to increase spiritual awareness in order to enhance the total development of the individual, foster dialogue and understanding amongst different religious groups, and to eliminated prejudice and intolerance through constant awareness have added greatly to the Berkeley community.”
