The Life and Works of Hazrat Inayat Khan
Farzana Moon
This book portrays Sufic message of Hazrat Inayat Khan's journey to America, Russia and Europe in his own words as he wrote. "The message of love, harmony and beauty is like a divine stream of spiritual evolution flowing onward throughout our daily lives. And this awakening to purity and wisdom is the true essence of all that is understood by the term Sufi. I was transported by destiny from the world of lyric and poetry to the world of industry and commerce, on September 13, 1910. I bade farewell to my motherland, the soil of India, the land of the sun, for America the land of my future, wanderings: Perhaps I shall return some day, and yet I did not know how long it would be before I should return. The ocean that I had to cross seemed to me a gulf between the life that was passed and the life which was to begin. I spent my moments on the ship looking at the rising and falling of the waves and realizing in this rise and fall the picture of life reflected, the life of individuals, of nations, of races, and of the world. I tried to think where I was going, why I was going, what I was going to do, what was in store for me. How shall I set to work? Will the people be favorable or unfavorable to the Message which I am taking from one end of the world to the other? It seemed my mind moved curiously on these questions, but my heart refused to ponder upon them even for a moment, answering apart one constant voice I always heard coming from within, urging me constantly onward to my task, saying: Thou art sent on Our service, and it is We Who will make thy way clear. This alone was my consolation." Hazrat Inayat Khan
