Image
We are always searching for God afar off, when all the while He is nearer to us than our own soul.
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
He who sincerely seeks his real purpose in life is himself sought by that purpose. As he concentrates on that search a light begins to clear his confusion, call it revelation, call it inspiration, call it what you will. It is mistrust that misleads. Sincerity leads straight to the goal.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
The bringers of joy have always been the children of sorrow.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
He who has spent has used he who has collected has lost but he who has given has saved his treasure forever.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
A person does not hear sound only through the ears he hears sound through every pore of his body. It permeates the entire being.
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
The truth is that man is one individual with two aspects, just like one line with two ends. If you look at the ends, it is two. If you look at the line, it is one. One end of the line is limited, the other end of the line is unlimited. One end is man, the other end is God.
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
What science cannot declare, art can suggest what art suggests silently, poetry speaks aloud but what poetry fails to explain in words, music can express. Whoever knows the mystery of vibrations indeed knows all things.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Music should be healing. Music should uplift the soul. Music should inspire.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
How can you be that which you possess? You cannot be the horse and rider at the same time. Herein lies the secret of mortality and immortality.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
When we pay attention to nature's music, we find that everything on the Earth contributes to its harmony.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Your heart is not living intil it has experienced pain... the pain of love breaks open the heart, even if it is as hard as a rock.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
The discrimination between good and evil is in man's soul. Every man can judge that for himself, because in every man is the sense of admiration of beauty. Happiness only lies in thinking or doing that which one considers beautiful. Such an act becomes a virtue or goodness.

What you are speaks louder than what you say.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
In the eyes of a seer, every leaf of a tree is a page of the Holy Book and contains divine revelation.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
By our trust in the divine beauty in every person we develop that beauty in ourselves.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
One is never so strong as when one is broken.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
I first believed without any hesitation in the existence of the soul, and then I wondered about the secret of its nature. I persevered and strove in search of the soul, and found at last that I myself was the cover over my soul!
