People in the world wish to make things rigid, things which are of the finest nature which words cannot explain.

You must not depend upon my words.

Music should be healing. Music should uplift the soul. Music should inspire.
Hazrat Inayat Khan

The only way to live in the midst of inharmonious influences is to strengthen the will power and endure all things, yet keeping fineness of character and nobility of manner together with an everlasting heart full of love.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
When one bell is rung, by the sound of that one bell other bells will also vibrate. So it is with the dancing of the soul...it produces its reaction, and that again, will make other souls dance.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Stand through life firm as a rock in the sea, undisturbed and unmoved by its ever-rising waves
