The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

No doubt form and movement speak aloud of one's condition, but the expression of man's face speaks louder still. There come distinct changes at every impulse, at every change of emotion, making distinct marks which are an open book to a seer. The word Kashf means "opening," and it is used by the Sufis with the meaning that the human heart is as a rule a closed book and the one to whom it becomes open can read it like an open book. No doubt reading man's condition of mind from his appearance is not such a difficult thing. Even dogs and cats can know this and sometimes they know better than man.
