The Magic Monastery is a work by Idries Shah that offers a select collection of stories from dervishes and Mohammedan monks, wandering sages of Islam who imparted Sufism teachings through their stories. This book not only compiles traditional tales, many of them unpublished, but also includes stories written by Shah himself to complement the work as a course in non-linear thinking. The Sufi method, based on the understanding of the human being, seeks to organize human relationships and the learning system, offering the reader stimuli to discover how their previous conditioning influences their perception of life situations.
Idries Shah, also known as Idris Shah, Indries Shah, né Sayed Idries el-Hashimi and by the pen name Arkon Daraul, was an Afghan author, thinker and teacher in the Sufi tradition. Shah wrote over three dozen books on topics ranging from psychology and spirituality to travelogues and culture studies.
