The Sufi Movement In Australia holds a Summer Retreat every year in January. These retreat currently alternate between Melbourne and Sydney. The next retreat (2009) will be held in Sydney.
Our annual Sufi retreats are open those who are currently travelling on a spiritual path. It is preferred that participants have prior experience of a Sufi group, and / or Sufi teachings. Sufi teachings are the distillation of the same spiritual wisdom which has inspired all traditions throughout time.
Murshid Nawab Pasnak, the International Co-ordinator and Madar-ul-Maham of the International Sufi Movement, and some members of the Sufi Movement in Australia together lead these retreats which are an annual opportunity to deepen and grow through the practices and teachings of Hazrat Inayat Khan. Murshid Nawab is an experienced Sufi teacher and has led summer schools and retreats over a number of years in many countries all over the world. We are privileged to have him guide us.

small person will narrow it to the size of his own outlook.’
