A Sufi Path of Transformation
By Kabir Helminski As human beings we stand on the threshold between two realities: the world of material existence and the world of spiritual Being. The “knowing heart” is the sacred place where these two dimensions meet and are integrated. In Sufi teaching the human heart is not a fanciful metaphor but an objective organ of intuition and perception. -

The Qur'an Volume 1: Surahs 1-3
Translation by Camille Adams Helminski Numerous keys are available to us to open the deeper meaning that lives within us; the words of the Holy Qur’an are such keys. Camille Adams Helminski offers in this Volume I, a fresh English translation of the first three surahs of the Quran—Surah al-Fatiha, Surah al-Baqarah, and Surah Al-‘Imran, which convey the principles of human ethics, encouraging us to turn again and again to realignment with our Source. Occasional transliterations of the original Arabic are also included to remind us of the beauty of the original revelation.Camille Adams Helminski’s The Qur’an Volume 1: Surahs 1-3 is a beauty-full, light-full rendering of the word of God. It is filled with so many insightful choices drawn from the heart of the Islamic tradition. Two examples will suffice: In the translation of the Fatiha, the phrase “ghayr al-maghdub ‘alayhim” is (accurately) rendered as “not the path of those who have brought stringency upon themselves.” In other words, the ghadab (wrath/anger/stringency) is the result not of God having wrath on us, but a consequence of our own choices. Also, translating Allah not merely as “God” but also as “Divine Reality” conveys a sense of the grandeur and majesty of the Divine. Insights like this abound in Helminski’s wonderful volume. Highly recommended for Muslims seeking to go deeper into the mysteries of the Qur’an, and spiritually seeking friends seeking to explore the Qur’anic roots of the Sufi path. ~ Omid Safi (Founder, Illuminated Tours and Courses)

The Qur'an: Volume XI: Surahs 67-114
Translation by Camille Adams Helminski Available from all bookstores including: This Volume XI, contains fresh English translations of surahs 67 through 114, the shorter surahsof the Qur’an so frequently remembered by heart. Also interspersed are transliterations of key terms and verses, so that the reader may have a sense of the flowing beauty of the Qur’anic language. Saints and the wise across the world have been inspired and guided by these verses for centuries. Hakim Sana’i, a beloved mystic and revered predecessor of Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi, once expressed the beauty of the Qur’an in this way: "The lines of the Qur’an are like unto faith’s shore, for it gives ease to heart and soul; its bounty and its might are as the encircling sea around the soul’s world; its depths are full of pearls and jewels, its shores abound in aloes-wood and ambergris; knowledge of first and last is scattered from it for benefit for soul and body both." -
Translation by Camille Adams Helminski This Volume V contains fresh English translations of surahs 16 through 19 (“The Bee”, “The Night Journey,” “The Cave,” and “Mary”). These surahs reveal moments of inspiration received by some of the smallest but most beneficial creatures, bees, as well as human beings; we meet moments with a number of Prophets of God, including beloved Maryam, whose devoted heart in utmost purity was exemplary in receptivity. The stories of all these sensitive beings bring into greater awareness the possibility implanted within the heart of the human being to listen and respond to the compassionate guidance continually arriving from Divine Reality. Interspersed within the translation are transliterations of key terms and verses, so that the reader may have a sense of the flowing beauty of the Qur’anic language. And an Appendix of the Ninety-Nine Names of God, the Asma al-Husna (“Most Beautiful Names”) which are remembered through the verses of the Qur’an, is also included.
