Hazrat Inayat Khan
Spiritual progress is the changing of the point of view.
Hazrat Inayat Khan

Hazrat Inayat Khan

Hazrat Inayat Khan

Hazrat Inayat Khan
The one thing to rely upon is God's favor. Do not build either on your study or on your meditation, although they both help you. But you are dependent on God, not even on your murshid. Seek Him, trust Him. In Him lies your life's purpose, and in Him is hidden the rest of your soul.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
All names and forms are the garbs and covers under which the one life is hidden.
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
The secret of life is balance, and the absence of balance is life's destruction.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
It is a very high stage in the path of love when man really learns to love another with a love that asks no return.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
With love, even the rocks will open.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
There should be balance in all our actions to be either extreme or lukewarm is equally bad.
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
