Season 4, Bonus Episode
This illuminated lecture features Alan Niku as he seeks to answer these questions: How did Jews in Persia participate in Sufism before and after the appearance of Kabbalah? Is Sufism a fundamentally Islamic form of mysticism? And what Sufi influences are still tangible in the practices of Persian Jews today?
This episode was recorded as a live presentation on July 11, 2024 at The Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles.
