The Awakened Heart

Hazrat Inayat Khan: All that is good and beautiful and worth attaining is centered in that one spark, hidden in the heart of man… One moment of life with a living heart is worth more than a hundred years of life with a heart that is dead.

Listen to Summer School Lecture - Love, Life, Joy! (58:54 unedited)
We take it as our sacred duty to see God seated in the heart of everyone. In Murshid’s Prayer Salat we affirm every day that, “Thy Light is in all Forms, Thy Love in All Beings.” Download Lecture Text
Listen to Wazifa Practice - Ya Nur (21:09)
Hazrat Inayat Khan: Nur is specially that light which comes from the divine Sun, the spirit of God. All souls are made of that essence which is the essence of the whole manifestation; and the quality of that essence is that it absorbs all that is around it, and in time develops so that it will emerge into its own element, which is the divine.
Listen to Concentration Practice - Water (35:21)
Hazrat Inayat Khan (Murakkabah Gitas): There are some impressions which act to the benefit of ourselves or of another, and there are some impressions which act to the disadvantage of ourselves and of another. Therefore the Sufi seeks the goodwill of another, worthy or unworthy, and avoids at any cost, at any sacrifice, the ill will of another. The former falls as the shower of bliss, the latter rises as the blaze of fire.
