More quotes by Hazrat Inayat Khan
One is never so strong as when one is broken.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Some people look for a beautiful place, others make a place beautiful.
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
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
My heart is tuned to the quietness that the stillness of nature inspires.
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
I have found in every word a certain musical value, a melody in every thought, harmony in every feeling, and I have tried to interpret the same things with clear and simple words to those who used to listen to my music.
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
When one bell is rung, by the sound of that one bell other bells will also vibrate. So it is with the dancing of the soul...it produces its reaction, and that again, will make other souls dance.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
A person does not hear sound only through the ears he hears sound through every pore of his body. It permeates the entire being.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Love is the essence of all religion, mysticism, and philosophy, and for the one who has learned this, love fulfills the purpose of religion, ethics, and philosophy, and the lover is raised above all diversities of faiths and beliefs.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
We grown-up people think that we appreciate music, but if we realized the sense that an infant has brought with it of appreciating sound and rhythm, we would never boast of knowing music. The infant is music itself.
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
Love develops into harmony, and of harmony is born beauty.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
... The wise in all ages... have tried to learn one thing only, and that was resignation to the Will of God. By doing this, they have reached a stage at which they could see from God's point of view.
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
In ancient times the greatest of the prophets were great musicians.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Joy and sorrow are the light and shade of life without light and shade no picture is clear.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
The wise man should keep the balance between love and power he should keep the love in his nature ever increasing and expanding, and at the same time strengthen the will so that the heart may not easily be broken.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
