The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan: The Way of Illumination
The Sufi understands that although God is the source of all knowledge, inspiration, and guidance, yet man is the medium through which God chooses to impart His knowledge to the world. He imparts it through one who is a man in the eyes of the world, but God in his consciousness. It is the mature soul that draws blessings from the heavens, and God speaks through that soul. Although the tongue of God is busy speaking through all things, yet in order to speak to the deaf ears of many among us, it is necessary for Him to speak through the lips of man. He has done this all through the history of man, every great teacher of the past having been this Guiding Spirit living the life of God in human gu...
The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan Centennial Edition
The works of Hazrat Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan are one of the great spiritual treasures of the world. At once deeply rooted in the Sufi tradition and strikingly original in insight and expression, Hazrat’s teachings remain as potent and meaningful today as they were when originally communicated a century ago, with a message for every human mind and heart, and indeed for humankind collectively. For some time the need for a new popular edition of Hazrat Inayat Khan’s collected works has been apparent. With this in view, Suluk Press now commences its series The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan: Centennial Edition. The aim of this series is to provide the full set of Hazrat’s best-known teachings in a form that balances fidelity to his original words with sensitivity to the contemporary evolution of the English language.
The Sayings of Hazrat Inayat Khan
Indifference! My most intimate friend, I am sorry I have always to act against thee as thy opponent. My modesty! Thou art the veil over my vanity. My humility! Thou art the very essence of my vanity. Vanity! Both saint and sinner drink from thy cup. Vanity! Thou art the fountain of wine on the earth, where cometh the King of Heaven to drink. Peacock! Is it not thy vanity that causeth thee to dance? My bare feet! Step gently on life's path, lest the thorns lying on the way should murmur at being trampled upon by you. My ideal! I imagine at moments that we are playing see-saw; when I rise up, thou goest down below my feet; and when I go down, thou risest above my head. My self-dependence! Thou...
The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan: The Art of Being
Many think that it is some deformity of the body, a curve in the spine or cavity in the brain that affects the mind. Few realize that very often the mind produces an irregularity in the spine or in the brain, thereby causing an illness. The ordinary point of view regards an illness as a physical disorder, which can be cured by means of material remedies. Then there is another point of view: that of people who think deeply and who say that by not taking notice of an illness, or by suggesting to oneself that one is well, one can be restored to health. This point of view can be exaggerated, when some people claim that illness is an illusion, that it has no existence of its own. The ordinary poi...
The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan: The Vision of God and Man, Confessions, Four Plays
The first part of this twelfth volume of The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan consist of a number of lectures the Master gave at different times, and which for various reasons have not been included in the proceeding volumes. They are published here for the first time, except 'Wealth.' Which appeared in the Sufi Quarterly of June 1931. In his Confessions, which were published in 1915 in a limited edition, long since out of print, Inayat Khan gave some reminiscences of his early life. He tells us about his home life, which was centered round the towering figure of his grandfather, the celebrated musician, Maulabakhsh, who so profoundly influenced him, about the career he himself made as a m...
The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan: The Sufi Teachings
SUFISM has never had a first exponent or a historical origin. It existed from the beginning, because man has always possessed the light which is his second nature; and light in its higher aspect may be called the knowledge of God, the divine wisdom – in fact, Sufism. Sufism has always been practiced and its messengers have been people of the heart; thus it belonged to the masters as well as to others. Tradition states that Adam was the first prophet, which shows that wisdom was already the property of the first man. There have always been some among the human race who have desired wisdom. These sought out spiritual beings in their solitude, serving them with reverence and devotion, and lea...
