The greatest is to have a tendency to friendship; this is expressed in the form of tolerance and forgiveness, in the form of service and trust. In whatever form he may express it this is the central theme: the constant desire to prove one's love for humanity, to be the friend of all.
Hazrat Inayat KhanLove manifests towards those whom we like as love; towards those whom we do not like as forgiveness.
Hazrat Inayat KhanThings appear different from every different plane from which you look at them, and when a person standing on flat earth asks a person standing on top of a mountain, "Do you also believe something?" the person cannot tell much. The questioner must come to the top of the mountain and see. There can be no link of conversation between them until that time.
Hazrat Inayat KhanConsciously or unconsciously, every being is capable of healing himself or others.
Hazrat Inayat KhanFor 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.
