More quotes by 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
The highest and greatest goal that every soul has to reach is God. As everything needs renunciation, that highest goal needs the highest renunciation.
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
We are always searching for God afar off, when all the while He is nearer to us than our own soul.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
I have seen all souls as my soul, and realized my soul as the soul of all.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
If someone strikes my heart, it does not break, but it bursts, and the flame coming out of it becomes a torch on my path.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
One is never so strong as when one is broken.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
What a great thing is understanding! It is priceless. No man can give greater pleasure to his fellow man than by understanding him.
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
My heart is tuned to the quietness that the stillness of nature inspires.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Externally we are a single being, but internally we are a world.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
We, the human beings in this world, if there is a spark of goodness or kindness in our hearts, avoid judging people. We prefer forgiving to judging.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
All names and forms are the garbs and covers under which the one life is hidden.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Reason is the illusion of reality
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Stand through life firm as a rock in the sea, undisturbed and unmoved by its ever-rising waves
Hazrat Inayat Khan
It is through this physical body that the highest and greatest purpose of life is achieved. A person only calls it the physical body in ignorance. Once the knowledge has come...he begins to look upon it as the sacred temple of God.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
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
Music should be healing. Music should uplift the soul. Music should inspire.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
