Death is the tax the soul has to pay for having a name and a form.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
The whole of life is as music and in order to study life we must study it as music. It is not only study, it is also practice which makes man perfect. If someone tells me that a certain person is miserable or wretched or distressed, my answer will be that he is out of tune.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
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
He is thoughtful whose mind is directed by his will, whose mind fulfills his intentions, whose mind is under the control of his intention... It is not till a person has gained mastery over his mind, till he is above this activity, that he is a ruling power, a true person.
Hazrat Inayat Khan

Everyone has his own imagination of God. It is best if everyone is left to his own imagination.

Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
We grown-up people think that we appreciate music, but if we realized the sense that an infant has brought with it of appreciating sound and rhythm, we would never boast of knowing music. The infant is music itself.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
I have seen all souls as my soul, and realized my soul as the soul of all.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
The souls of all are from one and the same source but a soul which is unveiled shines out. Love and light come continually from such souls. We need no proof of it for it is living all else is dead in comparison.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
With love, even the rocks will open.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
All ignorance is the lack of love.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
In ancient times the greatest of the prophets were great musicians.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Life is a symphony, and the action of every person in this life is the playing of his particular part in the music.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Once you have given up your limited self willingly to the Unlimited, you will rejoice so much in that consciousness that you will not care to be small again.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Self-pity is the worst poverty. When a person says, 'I am...' with pity, before he has said anything more he has diminished himself to half of what he is and what is said further, diminishes him totally nothing more of him is left afterwards.

Atmosphere is a silent music. It has its effect upon the listener, exciting or peaceful, whatever it may be.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Music seems to be the bridge over the gulf between form and the formless.
