Reflections 5 - II - 48

A Collection of Teachings

The ordinary meaning of ‘being spiritual’ is to have spirit within us; no doubt we do have it. The other meaning of ‘being spiritual’ is when forgetting our own Inner progress, and when offering all the services to others. There is no need to worry about ‘becoming spiritual’. To be ‘spiritual’ is to be natural. It is unnatural not to be ‘spiritual’.

Hazrat Inayat Khan, in his seventeen years of work in the West (from 1910 until 1927) has travelled extensely, in Europe, in Russia and the United States, and he has left us a widespread wisdom which covers all aspects of human life on this earth.

Here the reflections throw their light upon a certain aspect, and, dear friends, if you wish to follow them every day, you will certainly discover a golden thread which links one sentence to the other; and there might appear, before your inner perception, something which every individual, in his or her own way, could discover something like 'the map of my own life'...

Heartily
