The man who tries to prove his belief superior to the faith of another, does not know the meaning of religion.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
The happiness of this world is something we cannot keep it is just like the horizon - the nearer you go, the farther it goes. As soon as you get it, you see it is not the thing you wanted.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
... The wise in all ages... have tried to learn one thing only, and that was resignation to the Will of God. By doing this, they have reached a stage at which they could see from God's point of view.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
The bringers of joy have always been the children of sorrow.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
When I open my eyes to the outer world I feel myself as a drop in the sea. But when I close my eyes and look within, I see the whole universe as a bubble raised in the ocean of my heart.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
When one looks at the ocean, they can only see that part of it which comes within their range of vision so it is with the truth.

Image
Music should be healing. Music should uplift the soul. Music should inspire.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
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
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!
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
The heart becomes wide by forgetting self, but narrow by thinking of the self and pitying one's self. To gain a wide and broad heart you must have something before you to look upon, and to rest your intelligence upon - and that something is the God-ideal.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Music should be healing, music should uplift the soul, music should inspire then there is no better way of getting closer to God, of rising higher towards the spirit, of attaining spiritual perfection, only if it is rightly understood.
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.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Each human personality is like a piece of music, having an individual tone and a rhythm of its own.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Once you have linked yourself with love, a flood of inspiration is revealed to you, whatever the subject, whatever the problem in life may be. Whatever it be that your eye casts its glance upon, it will disclose itself. Then you are on the real road, and what a joy this is!
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Joy and sorrow are the light and shade of life without light and shade no picture is clear.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Every man's path is for himself let him accomplish his own desires that he may thus be able to rise above them to the eternal goal.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
Now if I do anything it is to tune souls instead of instruments. To harmonize people instead of notes. If there is anything in my philosophy, it is the law of harmony: that one must put oneself in harmony with oneself and with others.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
My heart is tuned to the quietness that the stillness of nature inspires.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
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.

A person does not hear sound only through the ears he hears sound through every pore of his body. It permeates the entire being.
