This delightful little book of Teaching Stories from Sufi tradition is quirky, puzzling often unexpected. For those of us with an inkling that there is more to life than meets the eye, it offers much more. It can help us recognize the “Veil”: the indoctrination & base aspirations of the commanding self, blocking our perception, experience and use of the “Gazelle”. It can help us See how to See. Highly recommended! https://idriesshahfoundation.org/books/a-veiled-gazelle-seeing-how-to-see
