Is Sufism related to Islam at all? * +

Yes. Just as the Yoga tradition is related to Hinduism, the Zen related to Buddhism in a way, so is Sufism related to Islam.

However, it's not about believing in a set of doctrines or following the Shariah.

Anyone, regardless of their faith, can walk these paths. Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism are just names for the believing minds. Eternal illumination doesn't come without emptying yourself.

In this world, where it is condemned to love, those who can feel it are ever needed :-) * +

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phraseeach other
doesn't make any sense. - Rumi * +

Iam blasphemy and religion, pure and impure;
Old, young, and a small child.
If I die, don't say that he died.
Say he was dead, became alive, and was taken by theBeloved. - Rumi *
