The Nine-Sided Circle

The Nine-Sided Circle (NSC) is what we like to call a “no-mystery” Sufi school. The depth is here, but we aren’t trying to keep it hidden. What we’ve learned, we offer as openly as we can – without paywalls, without secrecy. The real unveiling happens through presence, awareness, and inner honesty.

We (Mushtaq Ali al Ansari and Noor Kyle George) are longtime dervishes offering grounded, unorthodox, sometimes silly, always deeply practical guidance for those seeking to awaken to Al-Haqq, the Truly Real.

Our work draws from traditional Sufism, Gurdjieff Work, existential–phenomenological inquiry, and other sources besides. It’s meant for those who would rather be awake than entertained.

To get a feel for our work and the NSC community, check us out on Facebook, Instagram, and especially YouTube. We hold weekly public talks on Zoom, offer private sessions, and occasionally host retreats.

NSC depends on the generosity of those our work touches and we welcome your support – thank you!
