Bøger af Hazrat Inayat Khan

SUFI-Perler (Gayan, Vadan, Nirtan) er en spirituel perle og en syntese af Khans universelle Sufi-budskab. Som både musiker og mystiker udtrykte Khan sig altid i musiske vendinger, men altid med det samme mål for øje: modtagerens hjerte. Gayan betyder ”sang”, som metafor for Skaberordet. Vadan betyder ”Guddommelig Symfoni”, som metafor for Sfærernes Musik. Nirtan betyder ”Sjælens Dans”, som metafor for menneskets rejse gennem livet, gennem inkarnationerne, fra og til Gud.Hazrat Inayat Khan blev født 5. Juli 1882 i Indien. Han blev initieret i forskellige sufi-ordener, men hans primære initiation var i Chisti Ordenen. Sideløbende studerede han indisk musik og hinduismens Vedanta/Shankara-filosofi."Denne lille perle af en bog er svaret på enhver pilgrims og ethvert sandt søgende menneskes bøn. Og det af den simple grund, at dens ord taler så rent til hjertet, at selv det mest forhærdede hjerte må kapitulere overfor dens stille kraft." Lars Muhl

This book focuses on the first principal of Sufism, namely, "There is One God, the Eternal, the Only Being; none exists save He." Over a century ago, Hazrat Inayat-Khan left us with a stirring commentary on this principal and a number of classic tales that illustrate his point, such as the story of Khwaja ''Usman Harvani and his foremost disciple Khwaja Gharib Nawaz, the account of Moses and the peasant boy, as well as the debate between a Brahmin and an iconoclast, among others. The author''s stories seek to spread the knowledge of unity, the religion of love and wisdom.

This work is ideal for anyone interested in world religions, learning about Sufi beliefs, or studying the spread of Sufism in the 20th century.HAZRAT INAYAT KHAN (1882-1927) was a Sufi teacher and writer who founded the "Sufi Order in the West" in London in 1914. Born into a Muslim-Indian noble family, he was initiated into several Sufi orders before leaving India in 1910 as a traveling musician at the encouragement of his sheik. Once arriving in the West, Khan turned from music to spreading Sufi thought and practice throughout three continents. He returned to India in 1926 to choose a site for his burial. Today, he is remembered for his call to man to awake to "Truth of Divine Guidance and Love," which is resonant in his many works on Universal Sufism.
