The author's stories seek to spread the knowledge of unity, the religion of love and wisdom.
Autorenporträt
Hazrat Inayat Khan was born in Baroda, India, on July 5th, 1882. A master of Indian classical music, he gave up a brilliant career as a musician to devote himself full-time to the spiritual path. In 1910, he followed his master's direction to go to the West to "spread the wisdom of Sufism" in the United States, England, and throughout Europe. For a decade and a half, he traveled tirelessly, giving lectures and guiding an ever-growing group of Western spiritual seekers. In 1926, he returned to India and died there the following year, on February 5th, 1927. He is entombed in the precincts of the dargah of Hazrat Nizam ad-Din Awliya'. Today, the universalist Sufi teachings he spread continue to inspire countless people around the world, and his spiritual heirs may be found in every corner of the planet.
