The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

We read in the tenth Sufi thought that perfection is achieved by the annihilation of the false ego. The false ego is what does not belong to the real ego, and what that ego has wrongly conceived to be its own being. When that is separated by analyzing life better, then the false ego is annihilated. A person need not die for it. In order to annihilate this body, in order to annihilate the mind a person has to analyze himself and see: "Where does 'I' stand? Does it stand as a remote, exclusive being? If it is a remote and an exclusive being then it must be found out." The whole spiritual process is to find this out.
