The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan Vol. 6 Centennial Edition The Alchemy of Happiness

Teachings on the question of happiness from Inayat Khan’s later years“In this sixth volume of the Centennial Edition of theSufi Message series, Hazrat Inayat Khan approaches the question of happiness from various angles. Sometimes the context is a discussion of desire, other times an analysis of ethics. What links these investigations is that, in every case, Hazrat identifies happiness with the soul. ‘Happiness is your own being, your own self, that self that is the most precious thing in life.’ From this perspective, happiness is something to be discovered rather than acquired.”—From the introduction by Pir Zia Inayat Khan
