The one Spirit of life is given different names, the sacred names. We more easily recognize the Spirit of life by the particular name to which we are accustomed. So far we are right, but the mistake we make, and it is to our loss, is to ignore or deny the same truth because it is given to us in another form and under another name. We limit it. We say the truth existed only in that period when certain teachers came to the world, and that after that it stopped.
Hazrat Inayat KhanTo attain peace, what one has to do is to seek that rhythm which is in the depth of our being.
Hazrat Inayat KhanTo make a friend, forgiveness is required which burns up all things, leaving only beauty; but to destroy friendship is easy.
Hazrat Inayat KhanWhen we are face to face with truth, the point of view of Krishna, Buddha, Christ, or any other Prophet, is the same. When we look at life from the top of the mountain, there is no limitation; there is the same immensity.
Hazrat Inayat KhanOne must always say every word with consideration, and should not say what one does not wish to happen. Those who do not understand the value of suggestion walk after their own fate with a whip in their hand, and those who understand its value and control their word and use it rightly, they are a bliss to themselves and a source of happiness to others.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
