The subject that Yesvi elaborates upon is close to his heart and soul, and easily touches the readers’ heart as he blogs on- “The idea of living in the present moment is central to sufi teachings, The sufi saints have emphasised upon ‘being present’ as an essential attribute for achieving self knowledge and transformation. The state of ‘heartful awareness’ within illuminates the self. It enables us to open our mind and our soul to the subtle experiences that come through meditation and contemplation upon the omnipresence of the almighty. Sufi scholars have stated that it is through presence that we can connect with the divine, and the divine can live through us.”

He goes on to write that many spiritual texts across religions state that we are imprudent beings lost and wayward in a sea of delusion and self-centeredness. Sufis say that those who desire union with the almighty must purify the heart from all self-interest and grandiosity.
