The vast repository of textbooks on Indian classical music make absolutely no reference to Hazrat Inayat Khan who was, undoubtedly, not only one of the greatest musicians of his time, but had also composed poems in Farsi, Urdu and Hindi.

This volume collects three classic essays by Sufi master Hazrat Inayat Khan (1882^-1927), along with a short lecture (previously unpublished), "The Path of the Mystic," and a small collection of aphorisms.
Inayat Khan's insistence on the unity of mysticism and the oneness of God, along with his openness to all spiritual paths, is an important corrective to sectarianism and Western misperception of Islam as sectarian.
The collection is full of memorable images, among them a picture of learning as tying a knot in the mind, and unlearning--essential to spiritual development--as the difficult task of untying it.

 SOI : Who We Are : History : Our Roots
When Inayat Khan came to the West — from his perspective we might call it "the mysterious West" — in 1910, he brought with him the traditions of the Sufi schools of India and Central Asia.
He came with the intention of bringing harmony, and even as the methods he was to teach were all but unknown to a Eurocentric, post-Victorian society, so was the ground in which his seeds were to be sown a world unknown to him.
The harmony between the traditions of the East and the dynamism of the West embodied in the teaching of Inayat Khan is a message that continues — through prayer, meditation, contemplation, and concentration — to enable the wisdom of the past to awaken to the spirituality of the future.

 Hazrat Inayat Khan: the Spirituality of Music
Hazrat Inayat Khan on the Spirituality of Music
Music is a miniature of the harmony of the whole universe, for the harmony of the universe is life itself, and humans, being a miniature of the universe, show harmonious and inharmonious chords in their pulsations, in the beat of their hearts, in their vibration, rhythm and tone.
It creates also that resonance which vibrates through the whole being, lifting the thought above the denseness of matter; it almost turns matter into spirit, into its original condition, through the harmony of vibrations touching every atom of one's whole being.
