His teaching was noted for its stirring beauty and power, as well as for its applicability to all people, regardless of religious or philosophical background. This book gathers together three of Inayat Khan's most beloved essays on the spiritual life from among the fourteen volumes of his collected works.

Hazrat Inayat Khan

HAZRAT INAYAT KHAN (1882‒1927) was trained as a Sufi of the Chishti order. Known for his universalist presentation of Sufism and broad learning across Sufi traditions, Inayat Khan’s teachings continue to be studied and practiced worldwide by numerous schools and Sufi centers, including the International Sufi Movement and the Inayatiyya community led by his grandson Pir Zia Inayat Khan.

Praise

"Few writers have been as important to the understanding of Islamic mysticism as Hazrat Inayat Khan. . . . These writings are an eloquent introduction to a spiritual path that encourages seekers to discover their inner spirituality amidst the business of everyday life." —Publishers Weekly

"Inayat Khan is masterful, patient, and exacting in teaching the way of getting to the center of life." —Yoga Journal

"Inayat Khan brought one of the strongest and sweetest lineages from India to the West: the music and open heart of Sufism as it blends with Persian poetry and Western intellect. He is a source and a great joy." —Coleman Barks, author of Open Secret and The Essential Rumi
