The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

Thus the way to go is this, even for attaining spiritual perfection. Those who renounce their desires for God, for spiritual perfection, bury their own desires in their heart. It is more than renouncing; it is killing them and burying them; but they are there all the same. They are entombed in the heart, and there they will produce all sorts of germs and worms, and they will decay. There will only be pain and nothing else, and so spiritual accomplishment cannot be attained in this way.
