Meandering on . . .

Today is the birthday of Hazrat Inayat Khan (July 5, 1882 – February 5, 1927), founder of Universal Sufism and the Sufi Order International.

"Tolerance does not come by learning but by insight. By understanding that each one should be allowed to travel along the path which is suited to their temperament." - Hazrat Inayat Khan

"A person however learned and qualified in his life's work in whom gratitude is absent, is devoid of that beauty of character which makes personality fragrant." - Hazrat Inayat Khan

"Joy and sorrow are the light and shade of life; without light and shade no picture is clear." - Hazrat Inayat Khan

"We start our lives trying to be teachers; it is very hard to learn to be a pupil." - Hazrat Inayat Khan

"Whoever knows the mystery of vibrations indeed knows all things." - Hazrat Inayat Khan

"The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels." - Hazrat Inayat Khan

"Everything in life is speaking in spite of it's apparent silence." - Hazrat Inayat Khan
