“Listen, open the heart’s window
and keep looking at the Beloved.
The task of love is to open that window
so the heart can be illuminated by His Beauty.
Gaze incessantly at the Beloved's face.
That is your power, my friend”
― Rumi

Jamila Vicki Davies (author of Wild Woman Holy Woman) is practiced in the art of healing as a Murabi in the Shadhdhuliyya Sufi Tariqa. Before becoming a Sufi, she taught hundreds of people the art of opening to the deep silence within as a teacher of meditation in the Vedic tradition. Her love of writing began more than forty years ago, and in her master’s practicum in Spiritual Ministry through the University of Sufism, she developed a program of self-discovery and self-reflection called Writing from the Heart, which helps people open to their own deepest wisdom.

Writing for me is a process of opening to what T.S. Eliot calls “the still point of the turning world,” opening to the world of imagination where words appear on the screen of my mind like bubbles rising from a pond…

These words connect me with my own center in the world where center can be so easily lost. I love the sensation of sitting at my desk, pen in hand and allowing thoughts, feelings and emotions to flow, discovering in that flow the very essence of who I am.

The still point of the turning world...

Testimonial

My name is Maysara Kamal. I am from Cairo, Egypt. "Writing from the Heart" was the first course I attended in Hikmah, and it definitely won't be the last! The course was a true heart opener with the guidance of Jamila and the beautiful words and insights shared by our lovely group. I am very grateful for this experience, and I'm looking forward to learn more through this beautiful organisation and its heart-centred community!

Join us for a six-week course designed to enhance authentic self-expression through reflective writing. With Jamila Davies, we will go deep into the Heart space.
