How can you be that which you possess? You cannot be the horse and rider at the same time. Herein lies the secret of mortality and immortality.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Image
For the value of everything exists for man only so long as he does not understand it. When he has fully understood, the value is lost, be it the lowest thing or the highest thing.
Hazrat Inayat Khan

People often ask me questions that I cannot very well answer in words, and it makes me sad to think they are unable to hear the voice of my silence.
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
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
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Stand through life firm as a rock in the sea, undisturbed and unmoved by its ever-rising waves

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
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!

I can see as clear as a daylight that the hour is coming when women will lead humanity to a higher evolution.

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.

When we pay attention to nature's music, we find that everything on the Earth contributes to its harmony.

Silence is the adornment of the wise, and for the foolish the only dignity possible.

Everyone has his own imagination of God. It is best if everyone is left to his own imagination.
