The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

All inspirations are revealed, the mysteries and secrets of life manifest before the view of the one whose heart is prepared by love. All manner of virtues spring from it. We hear they talk of ecstasy; some say that visionary people or perhaps those who see spirits and ghosts they have ecstasies. No, they do not know what ecstasy is. Ecstasy is a feeling that only comes when the heart is tuned to that pitch of love, which makes it melted, which makes it tender, which gives one gentleness, which makes one humble. This is a subtle subject. In speaking of it, I must say that it is better to have our connection more with the beings living upon earth than to have the craze to meet with the people on the other side of life. It is here that we are meant to evolve, and by being absorbed in those who have passed away we are taken away from the life we are meant to have, and then we live on earth as dead. People in pursuit of the spirit show on their face the dead expression.
