The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

If we are conscious only of our self, we are like the animal, seeking all for ourselves, taking all for ourselves. There are some who are conscious of their little group, or of their family. Their family, their little group adores them. There are some who are conscious of their nation. Their nation adores them. Their nation's welfare is their welfare, their nation's downfall is their downfall. Some, the Masters, have the whole humanity always before their eyes. They are conscious of the whole humanity. They think, "If I have not eaten, but my brother has eaten, it is all right. It I have had nothing, but my brother has had, it is all right." By the consciousness of the whole, the soul gains its freedom. It is not bound to any place or any condition. The more we open ourselves, the more we fulfil the aim of life.
