Every living being on earth loves life above all else. The smallest insect, whose life lasts only an instant, tries to escape from any danger in order to live a moment longer. And the desire to live is most developed in man.

More quotes by 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
I gave up my music because I had received from it all I had to receive. To serve God one must sacrifice the dearest thing, and I sacrificed my music, the dearest thing to me.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
The lover's pleasure is in the pleasure of the beloved. The lover is satisfied when the beloved is fed. The lover is vain when the beloved is adorned.
Hazrat Inayat Khan

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

Hazrat Inayat Khan
Music is the language of the soul and for two people of different nations or races to unite, there is no better means than music
