A soul who is not close to nature is far away from what is called spirituality. In order to be spiritual one must communicate, and especially one must communicate with nature; one must feel nature.
Hazrat Inayat KhanTo be resigned means to find satisfaction in self-denial (Self-denial is the denial of one's lower self).
Hazrat Inayat KhanThe person who is in tune with the Universe becomes like a radio receiver, through which the voice of the Universe is transmitted.
Hazrat Inayat KhanWhat makes us feel drawn to music is that our whole being is music: our mind and body, the nature in which we live, the nature which has made us, all that is beneath and around us, it is all music.
Hazrat Inayat Khan"Intellect is the knowledge obtained by experience of names and forms; wisdom is the knowledge which manifests only from the inner being; to acquire intellect one must delve into studies, but to obtain wisdom, nothing but the flow of divine mercy is needed; it is as natural as the instinct of swimming to the fish, or of flying to the bird. Intellect is the sight which enables one to see through the external world, but the light of wisdom enables one to see through the external into the internal world.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
