Reflections 4 - Inner Life - 12

A Collection of Teachings

by Hidayat I. Khan - see book 'Geistige Freiheit' - click here

From a human being of the Inner Life’s point of view, the Soul on its way to manifestation identifies herself with a smaller domain, that of the mind and the physical body. It is then confused between its true origin and the appearance of itself in the illusionary mirror of the human condition, which is known as ‘Nafs,’ or false ego.

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
