More quotes by Hazrat Inayat Khan
Music, the word we use in our everyday language, is nothing less than the picture of our Beloved. It is because music is the picture of our Beloved that we love music.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Spiritual progress is the changing of the point of view.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
I have found in every word a certain musical value, a melody in every thought, harmony in every feeling, and I have tried to interpret the same things with clear and simple words to those who used to listen to my music.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
The lover's pleasure is in the pleasure of the beloved. The lover is satisfied when the beloved is fed. The lover is vain when the beloved is adorned.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Death is the tax the soul has to pay for having a name and a form.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
It is a presumption on the part of man when he demands in words an explanation of God.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
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
The greatest is to have a tendency to friendship this is expressed in the form of tolerance and forgiveness, in the form of service and trust. In whatever form he may express it this is the central theme: the constant desire to prove one's love for humanity, to be the friend of all.
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
All names and forms are the garbs and covers under which the one life is hidden.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
By love, harmony and beauty you must turn the whole of life into a single vision of divine glory.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
One day, music will take its rightful place as the true religion of Mankind.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
People in the world wish to make things rigid, things which are of the finest nature which words cannot explain. When a person describes the hereafter, it is just like wanting to weigh the soul or photograph the spirit. I personally think that you must be able to realize yourself what the hereafter is. You must not depend upon my words.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
There is nothing better than music as a means for upliftment of the soul.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
For the value of everything exists for man only so long as he does not understand it. When he has fully understood, the value is lost, be it the lowest thing or the highest thing.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Have you known what it is to give your meal to another and to go without yourself? It gives a happiness that no dinner eaten by yourself can give. Have you known what it is to give your coat to another and do without it yourself? It gives a joy that the satisfaction of your own wants cannot give you.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Sufism is not a religion or a philosophy, it is neither deism nor atheism, nor is it a moral, nor a special kind of mysticism, being free from the usual religious sectarianism. If ever it could be called a religion, it would only be as a religion of love, harmony, and beauty.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
When we pay attention to nature's music, we find that everything on the Earth contributes to its harmony.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
All ignorance is the lack of love.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
