Hazrat Inayat Khan
What you are speaks louder than what you say.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
People often ask me questions that I cannot very well answer in words, and it makes me sad to think they are unable to hear the voice of my silence.
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

Moth: I gave you my life. Flame: I allowed you to kiss me.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
The wonderful thing is that the soul already knows to some extent that there is something behind the veil, the veil of perplexity, that there is something to be sought for in the highest spheres of life, that there is some beauty to be seen, that there is Someone to be known who is knowable.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
Joy and sorrow are the light and shade of life without light and shade no picture is clear.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Failure in life does not matter the greatest misfortune is standing still.
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
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
Divine sound is the cause of all manifestation. The knower of the mystery of sound knows the mystery of the whole universe.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
All names and forms are the garbs and covers under which the one life is hidden.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
By our trust in the divine beauty in every person we develop that beauty in ourselves.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
