This is a translation of the Gathas, the Sacred Readings of Sufism. They contain a condensed expression of the wisdom of the mystic Inayak Khan, and guidance of the seven most important subjects in Sufism.

Teachings of Hazrat Inayat Khan on destiny and free will, knowing life's purpose, self-discipline, the struggle of life, and rising above limitation. Many readers consider this book to be the most practical place to begin working with the teachings of Inayat Khan. Accomplishment in worldly affairs is not viewed as a hindrance on the spiritual path, but is seen as the means of developing the ability to achieve what one wishes, and ultimately to achieve the purpose of one's life. "It is not necessary for man to leave all the things of the world and go into retreat. He can attend to his business, to his profession, to his duties in life and yet at the same time develop this spirit in himself, which is the spirit of mastery. Mastery is not only a means of accomplishing the things of the world, but it is that by which a person fulfills the purpose of his life."

Recorded talks and sayings by Inayat Khan in their unedited and most authentic version.

Teachings on sound presenting a vision of the harmony which underlies and infuses every aspect of life. Science of breath, law of rhythm, the creative process, healing power and psychological influence of music.

All known talks compiled from original sources.

This volume contains a set of addresses on varying subjects by the founder of the Sufi Movement, given at different times during his stay in the West and covering a wide field of his teaching. The second part of the book consists of Inayat Khan's Confessions or reminiscences which he dictated around 1918, while in the third part the reader will find four short plays, written principally to be performed by his pupils in the course of their training.

The Nature Meditations were dictated by Hazrat Inayat Khan to his secretary, Sheikh Sidar van Tuyll, at his first summer school in the wheat field of Wissous, France, in 1921. This bookpresents the phrases, which were given out so they could be repeated slowly on the breath as a form of spiritual practise.

THE GAYAN OF HAZRAT INAYAT KHAN is one of the three most important works of inspiration for Inayati Sufis; the others being the Vadan and Nirtan. This edition of the Gayan: The Song of Divinity has been edited and adapted from the original for clarity in modern English, numbered and reformatted for ease of use, and made gender inclusive for modern readers.

The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan is a Sufi text, a sub-sector of Islamic teaching. It is one of a series of short essays on spirituality from Sufi teacher Hazrat Inayat Khan, who journeyed from India to spread his message of love and spiritual liberty to the West. The essay describes the Sufi ideas of God, nature, truth, and love, among others, as well as a beginners guide to Sufism. 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.

This new volume of the Complete Works series gives all found lectures by Inayat Khan over the period January to May 1925. Fourteen of the talks (one in German) are published here for the first time including one question and answer session with invaluable advice on guiding mureeds. The other twenty talks are seen here for the first time unedited. The talks were given during Inayat Khan's tours of Switzerland, Italy, Germany, England and the Netherlands, as well as talks given in Paris. Most readers of Inayat Khan's work will be familiar with the three plays published by the International Headquarters of the Sufi Movement in 1939: "The Bogey Man", "the Living Dead" and "Una". This volume now brings together two previously unpublished works: "Omar Khayyam" and "Tansen"; a treatment for a play which he never completed, "Rama"; and "Ameen -- the Faithful Trustee" which has long been out of print. We trust that this volume will provide a rich source of material for all those interested in Inayat Khan's teachings.

Sayings and aphorism of Inayat Khan. Flashes of inspiration contemplate daily life and divine consciousness.

A clear and eloquent presentation of the essential spirit which inspires world religions.
