Bulent Rauf
Bulent Rauf (1911 - 1987) - the grandson of Ismail Pasha, Vice-regent of Egypt, the family having close connections to the Ottoman imperial house. In 1945 he married his second cousin, Princess Faiza of Egypt, the sister of King Farouk of Egypt. He divorced in the early 1960s and in 1966 he settled in England, subsequently marrying his second wife Angela Culme Seymour. Rauf devoted many years of his life to the establishing of a body of knowledge based on an understanding of the absolute unity of existence. He was instrumental in the establishment of the Beshara Trust and subsequently the Beshara School of Intensive Esoteric Education at Chisholme House in the Scottish Borders, where since 1975 hundreds of students have studied the fundamentals of spirituality. He was first president of the Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi Society, dedicated to the promulgation of the works of the great Andalusian mystic. His chief literary work was the complete rendering into English of Ibn Arabis Fusus al-Hikam (Settings of Wisdom), incorporating the Turkish commentary attributed to Ismail Hakki Bursevi. He was engaged in translation, research work and counselling until his death in 1987. Date: 1985
