Hazrat Inayat Khan

Hazrat Inayat Khan

Hazrat Inayat Khan
The wonderful thing is that the soul already knows to some extent that there is something behind the veil, the veil of perplexity, that there is something to be sought for in the highest spheres of life, that there is some beauty to be seen, that there is Someone to be known who is knowable.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Joy and sorrow are the light and shade of life without light and shade no picture is clear.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Belief and disbelief have divided humankind into so many sects, blinding its eyes to the vision of the Oneness of all Life.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
According to metaphysics, fear is caused by the lack of light.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
In love abides all knowledge. It is mankind's love and interest in things that in time reveals their secret.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
The purpose of creation is beauty. Nature in all its various aspects develops towards beauty, and therefore it is plain that the purpose of life is to evolve towards beauty.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
It is a presumption on the part of man when he demands in words an explanation of God.
