THE GREEN DEMON
THE COLLECTION OF SUFI TALES
A young man wanders into a village to find that pandemonium prevails among the men working in the fields because of a demon! His curiosity aroused, the man asks about the demon and is amused to realize that the demon is merely a watermelon. When he tries to prove this to the disbelieving men, they turn on him, accusing him of being more wicked than a demon. This collection of Sufi tales mines human superstition and foolishness for a wise and richly comic look at the world around us. Sufism is a branch of Islam that seeks to discover the inner mystical aspects of religion. A Sufi teacher teaches his students not what to learn but how to learn, by examining himself and his fellow human beings.
