The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

And when we come to Krishna, in spite of all the love and lyric that is connected with his life, in spite of all the beauty and joy and color that his life gives, making a beautiful picture of his youth, he had to face a tremendous problem. And that was to defend the five brothers, the Pandavas, who were exiled from their kingdom. One might ask what had a mystic, a prophet, a teacher, to do with this problem? But this problem was a means, a means to bring out the message that was meant for Krishna to give. And this message was an all-sided philosophy. It is not the philosophy of one particular pitch, but it is a philosophy which contains all the notes of the music of life. If one reads that little book, the Bhagavad Gita, one finds that it is a phenomenon, that everything is dealt with: pride and honor and bravery and courage and fight and harmony and peace and love and surrender. Imagine!
