==Content==
''Wisdom of the Idiots'' is a book of Sufi teaching stories designed to have an impact on the reader using traditional Sufi psychology. Many stories are reminiscences of encounters with Sufis of long ago but experiences highlighted are valuable even from today's perspective. The carefully selected stories contain several levels of meaning and work like psychological mirrors in which the reader may see himself and Reality reflected, and come to understand these better.
‘In Idries Shah’s ''Wisdom of the Idiots'', the ‘idiots’ are Sufis, called this because their wisdom penetrates to a depth which renders it inaccessible to the merely intelligent or academically-knowledgeable.’
Shortly before he died, Shah stated that his books form a complete course that could fulfill the function he had fulfilled while alive. As such, ''Wisdom of the Idiots'' can be read as part of a whole course of study.
