The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

Create a Bookmark

The divine personality, expressed through the godly soul, shows itself in its interest for all, whether known or unknown to that soul. His interest is not only for another because of his kind nature or of his sympathetic spirit; he does not take interest in another person, in his welfare and well-being, because it is his duty, but because he sees in another person himself. Therefore, the life and interest of another person to the godly soul is as his own. In the pain of another person the godly soul sorrows; in the happiness of another person the godly soul rejoices. So the godly soul, who has almost forgotten himself, forgets also the remaining part of the self in taking interest in others.
