The wonderful thing is that the soul already knows to some extent that there is something behind the veil, the veil of perplexity, that there is something to be sought for in the highest spheres of life, that there is some beauty to be seen, that there is Someone to be known who is knowable.
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 happiness of this world is something we cannot keep; it is just like the horizon - the nearer you go, the farther it goes. As soon as you get it, you see it is not the thing you wanted.
