The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

Life at the present day seems to have taken away many considerations of psychological character. There was a time when, whether in the East or in the West, knitting or weaving clothes was known to every little girl, and to give to one's brother, or sister, or beloved, or relation some little thing made by one's own hand was a custom. Now a thing is easily bought at a shop; no one knows who has made it, whether it was made grudgingly or with grumbling, or how! Especially at this time when the working man is in revolt, what the workman has put into the objects he has made for you is open to question. In sewing for the person one loves a thought has gone naturally with every stitch that one has made. If it is done with love and affection every stitch produces a new thought, and completes that living thought of love, thus giving inwardly that great help that every soul is in need of.
