Oneness of Being: Ibn Arabi

This beautifully illustrated book contains an extraordinary and unique selection of deeply thought-provoking passages from the widely revered Sufi saint of the 12th century, Ibn Arabi. These quotes are accompanied by exquisite illustrations which support a deeper grasp of the metaphysical principles being offered, such as: the underlying and foundational unity and oneness of mankind. Demi recently illustrated a book called, " The Exemplary Life of Emir Abd al-Qadir" . The Emir was a saintly person from Algeria who was finally exiled by France to Damascus after successfully resisting the French invasion of Algeria for 15 years in the middle of the 19th century. He was a great lover of the works of Ibn Arabi and was buried next to him in Damascus. Demi had read Ibn Arabi's works in order to prepare herself to write and illustrate the book on the Emir Abd al-Qadir. As a result of her reading, she was inspired to create this jewel of a book in order to share the wisdom of Ibn Arabi with others.
