The title, A Veiled Gazelle, is taken from this beautiful poem by 12th-century mystic, Ibn Arabi. The "gazelles" are extraordinary experiences and perceptions latent in ordinary man. "Veiling" refers to the action of the subjective or "commanding" self, which partly through indoctrination and partly through base aspirations, prevents higher vision.Shah, Idries is the author of 'Veiled Gazelle Seeing How to See', published 1988 under ISBN 9780900860584 and ISBN 0900860588.
