THE SECRET OF PROGRESS
“I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life”
~ John 14:6
“. . . three of the great aims of the Sufis are to follow the Way, and to know the Truth, and to live the Life of God; and the question before them is how to progress from step to step in reaching these aims. This thought of progress is bound up in the heart of the Brotherhoods. . . See how these three titles are joined together like the links of a chain: ‘I am the Way’ — a path prepared. ‘I am the Truth’ — light to reveal the path. ‘I am the Life’ — strength to tread the path.” ~ Lilias Trotter (Chapter 6, The Way of the Sevenfold Secret)
