Dear Filip, as someone who was first introduced to Hazrat Inayat Khan (by Pir Vilayat) about 60 years ago, I commend you for this presentation! You have the facts right, you give deep context to his teaching, and you choose the quotes with insight. You honor your subject! You even found some photos I've never seen. I am looking forward to watching your video on Inayat Khan and Music. "Towards the One, the Perfection of Love, Harmony and Beauty..."

I fully agree with this comment. I have met several of the senior teachers in this silsileh. Fillip's presentation is true to this path and I hope more people will be inspired to follow in the footsteps of Inayat Khan. Nurjahan

Earlier this year I encountered a marvelous presentation of a portion of Inayat Khan's writings on music with appropriate and beautiful music played (which I can only assume would be from the sage's compositions) - this was given by an Australian Buddhist nun called Samaneri Jayasara whose splendid readings of spiritual works often with music are available on KZbin under her name. I instantly felt a connection with these thoughts on music, and I am so grateful to find your offering here to deepen my knowledge of this most astounding individual. The film you showed of him walking is heavenly. Thank you so much for filming this.

Sounds very interesting! Where can this presentation be found?

[@DoumSound]

Check out his book The Mysticism of Sound and Music. First read it about 25 years ago and it changed my life. Unfortunately, there is no record of anything he composed, and believe me I have looked 😊. If you search his name you will find his the website with all of his writings available for free.

Oh my. What a serendipitous video. 😊❤🙏 Inayat Khan’s quotes were wonderful. It seems he speaks of the Sanatana Dharma. Very interesting that like Swami Vivekananda, it was Western Women that embraced his Sufi message first. A Western Woman was a primary initiate for Inayat Khan as for Swami Vivekananda. This openness is the same as the mystical traditions explored by Sri Ramakrishna. Wonderful. ❤ This video makes me feel as if I’ve chanced upon a rare jewel, a facet of the Philosopher’s Stone that transforms all to gold. So glad you mentioned the Perennial Philosophy too. Thanks for a thorough video. Interesting that he was in Calcutta while the ideas of Sri Ramakrishna were brewing. Just Wow. Pure mysticism, just different words to describe the same….

A marvelous video... Thank you! Whilst I was at University, a rather severe faculty member was invited to speak about Sufism to one of our classes. He began his lecture by immediately warning his listeners about persons whom he regarded as pseudo-Sufis, in particular naming Vilayat Inayat Khan, and possibly Hazrat Inayat Khan himself, though my memory is now vague. It might be very interesting to hear more about contrary attitudes within Sufism and Islam, which anathematize Khan's approach.

Filip! Thank you deeply for this Hazrat Inayat Khan episode. 28 years as an initiate on this beautiful path, studying Inayat & Sam (Ruhaniat lineage) and I have no idea how many times I've been told by people from various orders that what we practice is not truly Sufism. I have continued to love these practices, and felt deeply connected to this Silsila and to the All-in-all, but felt still somehow "less than", until now. This beautiful episode gives me a historic heart-filling heart connecting understanding of how my own practices fit into a larger framework of worldwide Sufism. I can't thank you enough.

[@karelhoefijzer1762]

How awesome that you made a video about Inayat Khan. The first time I encountered this important figure was when i read that Muhammad Ali the GOAT was a big fan of Inayat Khan. Keep up the good work brother!

[@thendsufi]

Hazrat Inayat Khan is probably the biggest reason why I now identify as a Sufi (in addition to your wonderfully informative content on Sufism). I now have my own podcast and KZbin channel called The Neurodivergent Sufi and I’m planning on doing an episode about Hazrat Inayat Khan very soon. To address your point at the beginning, Filip, the way I practice Sufism is similar to how the Earth is structured. In other words, Islam is the core, but the mantle and the crust consist of other influences such as Hinduism, Zoroastrianism and Taoism.

[@gror7849]

You identify as a Sufi? 🙃 Or you are a Sufi? Cause this "identifying" business that is sadly practiced and abused here in the West is more posturing than actually anything resembling the practice and the depth Sufism, Hinduis, Zoroastrianism or Taoism have to offer.

[@thendsufi]

@ I’m glad you asked. I simply mean that I am not part of a particular order (at least not yet) and I have never interacted in person with other Sufis because I am disabled and travel is extremely difficult. I don’t drive and have no access to public transportation, as I live in a rural area. Though I am not affiliated with any order and have not studied under a particular master, I strongly identify with many aspects of Sufi culture and spirituality, and I’ve taught myself a lot about the faith, which I believe in with all my heart. It’s not my fault I can’t do certain things in person that other Sufis can, but I still call myself a Sufi because that’s what I am in my heart and I don’t need the outside world to validate that for me.

[@BlancheNeigefan]

Thanks for your graceful and informative answer to the other commenter. I really hope that you can connect in person with other sufis, though I'm sure you already did through your studies.

[@thendsufi]

@ I appreciate the compliment. I am trying to be better about being gracious and patient with people. I didn’t particularly care for that person’s comment, but I decided to respond with kindness and love because that is what is expected of me by Allah (SWT). There is a verse in the Qur’an that talks about the importance of speaking in a calm, gentle tone of voice, because “surely the most repugnant of voices is the braying of the donkey.” I always keep that verse in mind whenever I get angry. Even if I start out speaking loudly out of anger, I recite that verse in my head and immediately correct myself and try to lower my voice.

[@amitozazad1584]

There is a comment on growing hatered towards Muslims in India recently. I must point out the other side. India has always celebrated and embraced the music, poetry, and teachings of Sufi mystics native to this land. Be it the works of Inayat Khan, the poems of Baba Bulleh Shah, the verses of *Saif ul Malook* by the renowned Kashmiri Sufi poet Mian Muhammad Bakhsh, the music of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, or the teachings of Baba Fareed-these contributions have enriched the spiritual and cultural tapestry of India. However, the Islam practiced in Arab countries, such as Saudi Arabia, is fundamentally different from the Sufism of this region. In Arab Islam, music and art are often considered *haram* (forbidden), which stands in stark contrast to the artistic and devotional expressions found in Sufism. I grew up in a Hindu-Sikh family, and my understanding of Islam was shaped by the Sufism of this land, as spread by revered mystics. The *Guru Granth Sahib* even includes teachings of Muslim mystics like Sheikh Fareed. Growing up, we would listen to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's renditions of *kalam* by Bulleh Shah, which further strengthened my perception that these teachings reflected the essence of Islam. Sufism, in many ways, aligns with the principles of Bhakti yoga, as both emphasize a deep, intoxicating devotion to one's guide (*mursheed*) or to Allah (*God*). However, my perspective shifted when I moved to Europe and encountered Islam as practiced in Arab countries, which adheres strictly to a word-by-word interpretation of the Quran, *authentic Hadiths*, and the *Seerah* (life and practices) of Prophet Muhammad. This form of Islam is vastly different from the Sufism rooted in the Indian subcontinent. It made me realize why some Muslims struggle to integrate into European cultures and societies. The Arab influence on Islam often views Sufi practices like visiting *dargahs* (shrines of saints) as *shirk* (associating partners with Allah), which directly conflicts with the centuries-old traditions of this land practiced by both Hindus and Muslims. For example, my mother used to take me to such *dargahs* despite us being non-Muslims, demonstrating how deeply ingrained this practice is in the region’s culture. Figures like Baba Bulleh Shah of Pakistan, who was declared a *kafir* (non-believer) and denied a proper burial, and Mansur Al-Hallaj of Persia, who was executed for proclaiming "Ana al-Haqq" (I am the Truth, akin to the Vedantic "Aham Brahmasmi"), highlight the historical tension between orthodoxy and mysticism. India, however, has always embraced these mystics and their teachings. But the growing influence of Arab Islam among Indian Muslims poses challenges to the harmony between communities. If Arab-influenced Islam rejects practices like visiting *dargahs* or considers worshippers of Ganesh, Ram, and Shiva as destined for hell due to polytheism, it creates an environment of alienation and conflict. Furthermore, beliefs such as the *Hadith* of *Ghazwa-e-Hind* (the prophesied conquest of India) sow insecurities among the native populations. The point is that importing the Islam of Arabia threatens the harmony between Muslims and Hindus in India. While it is true that radicalization has increased among certain Hindu groups, the growing influence of Arab Islam has also led to an identity crisis among Indian Muslims, making it harder for them to live in harmony with others. India has a long tradition of celebrating diversity and incorporating mystical traditions, and it is essential to preserve this spirit for the continued coexistence of its communities.

[@mises9954]

Before bs. Muslims contempory scholars reject that Sufism was part of islam .

[@BurnerAccotwo]

Yes and no. Your reasons are half correct. There is no "Arab" Islam, the one you are trying to address seem Wahabbis, which are more or less looked down by other Muslim branches. Secondly, there is no such thing as "Hindu". Ironically, baba Guru Nanak started Sikhi movement to oppose Casteism, which is what "Hindu"ism is. Islam of Gulf countries are different than Islam of the canaan, Islam of magreb regions is different than Islam of Africa.

[@catherinemira75]

The communal ceremony with a prayer that states the value of 'all known and unknown masters' is unique in mentioning that being a master is not necessarily linked to being a famous prophet. Traditional religions all stress the need to give our time and effort to their specific prophets. But we usually encounter significant and meaningful masters in our personal life that aren't widely known and these crucial encounters seem to be coming from a universe bent on delivering a specific message to each one of us. The classic case of falling in love is a message (good or bad) revealing to us what we need to understand about ourselves and our destiny. There's hardly anything more important to each one of us than to understand the meaning of love on a personal level, with a real human being. And so, a 'special delivery' message is sent by the universe under the guise of a 'master' that I would call 'destiny' and which demands that we turn our thoughts towards the meaning of life, God and death/time.
