The voice is not only indicative of man's character, but it is the expression of his spirit. Other sounds can be louder than the voice, but no sound can be more living.

More quotes by Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
Stand through life firm as a rock in the sea, undisturbed and unmoved by its ever-rising waves
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
Externally we are a single being, but internally we are a world.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
Consciously or unconsciously, every being is capable of healing himself or others.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Life is a symphony, and the action of every person in this life is the playing of his particular part in the music.
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
Sufism is not a religion or a philosophy, it is neither deism nor atheism, nor is it a moral, nor a special kind of mysticism, being free from the usual religious sectarianism. If ever it could be called a religion, it would only be as a religion of love, harmony, and beauty.
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
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
To be resigned means to find satisfaction in self-denial (Self-denial is the denial of one's lower self).
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Moth: I gave you my life. Flame: I allowed you to kiss me.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
The religion of the Sufi is the religion of the heart. The principal moral of the Sufi is to consider the heart of others, so that in the pleasure and displeasure of his fellow-man he sees the pleasure and displeasure of God.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
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
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
Some people look for a beautiful place, others make a place beautiful.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
The existence of illness in the body may no doubt be called a shadow of the true illness which is held by man in his mind.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
The souls of all are from one and the same source but a soul which is unveiled shines out. Love and light come continually from such souls. We need no proof of it for it is living all else is dead in comparison.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
