For a musician, music is the best way to unite with God.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Divine sound is the cause of all manifestation. The knower of the mystery of sound knows the mystery of the whole universe.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
The highest and greatest goal that every soul has to reach is God. As everything needs renunciation, that highest goal needs the highest renunciation.
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
By love, harmony and beauty you must turn the whole of life into a single vision of divine glory.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Spiritual progress is the changing of the point of view.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Now if I do anything it is to tune souls instead of instruments. To harmonize people instead of notes. If there is anything in my philosophy, it is the law of harmony: that one must put oneself in harmony with oneself and with others.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
We are always searching for God afar off, when all the while He is nearer to us than our own soul.
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
... 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
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
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
Things of heaven cannot be obtained by perseverance they are the grace of God. To open to this and trust in it is how belief is crystallized into faith. We cannot pay for it in any form, in any way, by our goodness, by our piety, by our great qualities, merits, or virtues nothing. It is a gift, and all we can do is receive it.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
When I open my eyes to the outer world I feel myself as a drop in the sea. But when I close my eyes and look within, I see the whole universe as a bubble raised in the ocean of my heart.
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
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
There is nothing in the world that does not speak to us. Everything and everybody reveals its own nature, character and secrets continuously. The more open our inner senses, the more we understand the voice of everything.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Love is the merchandise which all the world demands if you store it in your heart, every soul will become your customer.
