Reflections on the Subjects of Philosophy, Psychology and Mysticism in the Teachings of Hazrat Inayat Khan by Hidayat Inayat-Khan ---------------------- The first step towards awakening to the beauty of the inner life is to become fully aware of the beauty of God's creation. There can be no spirituality if one's heart is not open to beauty in all its aspects.

Bowl of Saki for April 2 SYMPATHY IS THE ROOT OF RELIGION; AND SO LONG AS THE SPIRIT OF SYMPATHY IS LIVING IN YOUR HEART, YOU HAVE THE LIGHT OF RELIGION.-- Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis (Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti): Religion is that which connects one with God. Therefore it is not mental, and not being mental there can be no theology or system of beliefs. When a mother suckles an infant there is no system of beliefs, there is not any intellectual enterprise. She loves it because s... Read More

Everything you see has its roots in the unseen world. The forms may change, yet the essence remains the same. Every wondrous sight will vanish, every sweet word will fade. But do not be disheartened, The Source they come from is eternal? growing, branching out, giving new life and new joy. Why do you weep?? That Source is within you, and this whole world is springing up from it. The Source is full, its waters are ever-flowing; Do not grieve, drink your fill! Do... Read More

George Orwell, Big Brother is watching your house 31.03.07 The Big Brother nightmare of George Orwell's 1984 has become a reality - in the shadow of the author's former London home. It may have taken a little longer than he predicted, but Orwell's vision of a society where cameras and computers spy on every person's movements is now here. According to the latest studies, Britain has a staggering 4.2million CCTV cameras - one for every 14 people in the country - and 20 per cent of cameras globally. It ... Read More

If you ask a Westerner about Hezbollah, their initial reply would likely be that Hezbollah is a terrorist organization backed by Iran and Syria. But to gain a deeper insight into their real understanding of the Party, listen carefully to what else they might have to say. Growing Western interest in Hezbollah has been evidenced in a series of articles, interviews, programs and reports appearing in the Western media about the course of the Israeli aggression against Lebanon and its continuing impact on the coun...

We need inner peace and the whole humanity needs it. Inner peace is always important but it is most needed now. It is the peace of heart and mind. Inner peace makes people steadfast, strong and capable to face theIR problems. If there is no Inner Peace people lose courage and strength to face their difficulties. People become sick and develop many other physical, emotional or psychological problems. They would certainly have spiritual problems. Those who do not have inner peace become irritable, angry, h...

I ride London's tube into work every day, and every day thousands of faces pass me. Some of them are Asian. And I wonder about their histories... were their parents the first generation or perhaps their grand parents? People of my late fathers age tell me that in the 50s and 50s seeing an Asian face across the street meant a bond of unity in an alien world and those chance encounters often led to lifetime friendships. Asians crossed the street to greet each other. It did not matter that the other person was Hind... Read More

Reflections on the Subjects of Philosophy, Psychology and Mysticism in the Teachings of Hazrat Inayat Khan by Hidayat Inayat-Khan ---------------------- One need not look for difficulties, because they are already there, ready to pursue one, and one should certainly not avoid confronting difficulties, but rather one should be prepared to vanquish them.

Bowl of Saki for April 1 WHEN ONE PRAISES THE BEAUTY OF GOD, THE SOUL IS FILLED WITH BLISS.--Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis (Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti): Now the condition of soul is peace, but in its natural, active state soul operates in the sphere of heart where the condition is bliss. That is to say, the soul praises God. This praising God brings bliss and this state of bliss is not connected with any plane. It is our state of mind which determines the plane, not the condition ...
