Sufi Philosophy
Let’s explore Sufism's core philosophy, delving into its teachings on the self, love, inner purification, and the journey toward divine unity.
In the last chapter of my philosophical search series, I explored the core philosophical principles of Buddhism, you can find it here: [https://cbarkinozer.medium.com/introduction-to-the-philosophy-of-buddhism-6c597930166b]. I also want to do this with Sufism by focusing on the point of world view of this mystical religious belief.

Sufism is more commonly called Tasavvuf in Turkish, which is directly translated as mysticism. We will not analyze it as a religion or go deep in its mysticism but try to learn and understand its point of view as a philosophical movement so we will use the term Sufism through this article. But first, let's learn the difference between Sufism and Tasavvuf words.
