The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

There was a time when a deep and independent thinker had great difficulty in expressing his thoughts. Although this has not entirely changed, there does seem in some ways to be much more freedom of expression in this age. In ancient times, when anyone expressed his thought freely about life and its hidden law, about the soul, God, creation, and manifestation he met with great difficulties. The chief difficulty was that the government was in the hands of various religious authorities, and under their rule the principles of exoteric religion prevailed; therefore those who sought attainment through the esoteric side of philosophy always had difficulty in speaking to people about it.
