The book &#8220;The Man of Light in Iranian Sufism&#8221; holds an important place in his legacy. Based on a number of classic Sufi texts the author examines the phenomena of light and colour (photism) seen by mystics during their spiritual journey, which indicate a change in their state. The author believes that these appearances should be interpreted as a meeting with an invisible &#8220;spiritual guide&#8221; who leads the mystic to the pure divine light.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">The 3rd edition of \u201cThe Man of Light in Iranian Sufism\u201d has a new preface by J.
