Reflections
on Spiritual Liberty is the fourth volume of the Reflections series of contemplations on Sufi
teachings by Hidayat Inayat Khan. As in the earlier Reflections on
the Art of Personality, Reflections on Philosophy, Psychology
and Mysticism and Reflections on Inner Sufi Teachings, the
spiritual leader of the International Sufi Movement offers short meditations
on the teachings of his father, the Sufi mystic, Inayat Khan. Here the
fascinating subjects of consciousness, freedom of thought and the essential
unity of mystical traditions are explored through highly condensed ‘reflections.'
These offer a distilled approach to Sufi metaphysics. Sufism is a universal
wisdom philosophy honouring all religious traditions and concerned with
the individual’s relationship to self, humanity and the divine.
Sufi poets Rumi and Hafiz have recently excited great interest in this
study.
Hidayat Inayat Khan
is the author of Sufi Teachings: Lectures from Lake OHara, The
Inner School and Reflections on the Art of Personality, the
first of the four volumes of the current series. A composer and spiritual
leader of the International Sufi Movement, founded by his father the Indian
mystic and musician Inayat Khan, he has also released recordings of vocal
and symphonic compositions, blending his Eastern and Western musical heritage.
He lives in the Netherlands.
