The JI School of Spiritual Healing & Sufism is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering global peace through love, healing, service, and leadership. The school trains people who want to combine scientific, emotional, and spiritual approaches to healing. Through teleclasses, workshops, and programs, the school offers its students exercises, tools, demonstrations, and Sufi practices that are the path to living ones highest truth.
The JI is committed to global peace through love, healing, service, and leadership, beginning with each person's heart. The aim of the school is to heal the world, one heart at a time. Participants in the Friends & Family program will have every chance to explore how the JI School of Spiritual Healing & Sufism can support students in helping to create global peace.
Dr. Jaffe and the faculty follow the Sufi path, a 1500-year-old heart-based spiritual tradition. Students from many different spiritual and religious traditions attend the school and are welcomed openly and lovingly. Sufi practices are offered and taught. Students report that the training enhances, deepens, and enriches their own personal spiritual practice and relationship to the Divine. The JIs aim is to give each student the understanding and tools necessary to embody the love, peace, mercy, and compassion of God.
Sufis, mystics who long to serve God, have long been known as world servers, helpers, and healers. The Sufi message is one of peace, love, mercy, justice, and freedom for all the people of the world.
As Dr. Jaffe say, "The Sufi way is a very beautiful way. It is the way of seeing God in everything, so that everything is valued in its perfection and loved as if it were God. All of the healing work is ultimately done from that perspective."
