Listen, Listen, Listen to "My Heart's Song"
with Amin Dawdy
July 29, 2017
Join the Abode for a night of imagination and sound – let your mind be a theatre for the presence of Sufi mystic, Hazrat Inayat Khan. Writer-director-producer Amin Dawdy has constructed an audio-imaginal experience bringing listeners into the enduring presence of this Sufi teacher. Come, come, whoever you are!
Join us at 7pm in Quddus, the Abode’s Meditation Hall on Saturday night. There will be a brief intermission including snacks. The suggested donation covers snacks and will be shared between the producer and the Abode’s re:Vision fund, expanding Abode spiritual programming by funding teachers, scholarships, and other initiatives.
Praise for My Heart’s Song
“The production has been polished to a gem-like perfection with performances of beautiful narration, informed Sufi commentary and many Sufi and Indian musical embellishments that accent his legend with grace and might reach deeply into one’s soul. … this beautifully-burnished audio production reflects his remarkable spiritual ability – developed from his deep Sufi lineage – to extract the perfect nectar from life’s turbulent mysteries and offer it to thirsty pilgrims to drink.” – Nan Hill
“Thank you dear Amin – I was so deeply touched, listening to this sound track. I wept in places and felt my iman being strengthened at others. Many blessings to you for bringing this project to fruition.” – Janet Berkata
“Wow! Just finished listening. Great ending song*. . .. I found the soundtrack very entrancing. It was calm and paced in a way to allow contemplation as well as learning… For me it was a bit of a journey within a journey as I know little of Inayat Khan…. For me it was an antidote to the news stories of our present day as well. The music is delicious and used artfully to weave together the segments of the story.” – Betsy Langston
“As the voice of Murshid, Tom Alter was an excellent choice. May this Audiobook gain wide distribution.” – Sarafil Bawa (Pir Zia Inayat-Khan)
“What a perfect way to present the story of this outrageous being!” – Liz McIlvaine
