Hazrat Inayat Khan

Every soul has a definite task, and the fulfillment of each individual purpose can alone lead man aright; illumination comes to him through the medium of his own talent.

In the eyes of a seer, every leaf of a tree is a page of the Holy Book and contains divine revelation.

Everything in life is speaking in spite of it's apparent silence.

Stand through life firm as a rock in the sea, undisturbed and unmoved by its ever-rising waves.

Life is a symphony, and the action of every person in this life is the playing of his particular part in the music.

For every loss there is a hidden gain. And for every gain there is a hidden loss.

Divine sound is the cause of all manifestation. The knower of the mystery of sound knows the mystery of the whole universe.

The source of the realization of truth is within man; he himself is the object of his realization.

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.

If you will not rise above the things of this world, they will rise above you.

Everything in life is speaking in spite of its apparent silence.

Mankind is interdependent, and the happiness of each depends upon the happiness of all, and it is this lesson that humanity has to learn today as the first and the last lesson.

My heart is tuned to the quietness that the stillness of nature inspires.

It is not solid wood that can become a flute but the empty reed.

Resignation is a quality of the saintly souls.

A person however learned and qualified in his life's work in whom gratitude is absent, is devoid of that beauty of character which makes personality fragrant.

The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels.

Sound is the force of creation, the true whole. Music then, becomes the voice of the great cosmic oneness and therefore the optimal way to reach this final state of healing.

I have seen all souls as my soul, and realized my soul as the soul of all.

The solution to the problem of the day is the awakening of the consciousness of humanity to the divinity within.
