The Indian Sufi master Hazrat Inayat Khan (1882-1927) was the very first teacher to bring Sufism to the Western world. This is the first representative collection of the master's teachings – making it the perfect book for anyone who has been intrigued by his writings but unsure about where to start in his sixteen-volume collected works. Newcomers will be inspired by just how delightful and useful Inayat Khan's teachings are for everyone, regardless of religious background. Long-time students will find the book a valuable reference to the essence of his teachings on a variety of subjects. Each chapter includes a wealth of material taken from Inayat Khan's work on a particular subject, such as Mysticism, Discipleship, Music, Children, or Divine Intimacy, followed by a selection of his short sayings and aphorisms on the same topic.
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
"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
