Sheikha Fatima Fleur Nassery Bonnin is a Sufi teacher (murshid), a clinical psychologist and the Founder and Director of the Australian Centre for Sufism and Irfanic Studies. Originally from Persia (Iran) she has practised in the United States and has been living and working in Australia for some years, focusing on Sufi psychology and spiritual teaching.
The Prophet of Islam (pbuh) is reported to have said: “He who knows his self, knows his Lord”. In Sufism, self knowledge is the path that leads to the knowledge of God. Self realisation as a vehicle for spiritual unfoldment is at the centre of Fleur’s teachings. She has written several articles and designed specialist courses and intensive programmes on psycho-spirituality and Sufism.
