The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

The feeling of sacredness comes from that profound depth of the heart which may be called the divine chamber; therefore it is religious feeling which is to be valued rather than the outward form. People in all ages have called those who did not worship in the same form as themselves heathen or pagan, and this hatred has caused all the wars and disagreements between the religions of the world. However high, beautiful, or wonderful the religious form may be, if there is no sincerity of the heart it is nothing. Therefore, the true religion is that sentiment which is to be found in the deepest depth of our being. When once that sentiment has become real, one naturally begins to respect the same sentiment in another person.
