The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

  • And now coming to the question what attitude one must have towards his initiator. If a person will not stand like a child before his initiator, he will not derive benefit out of his teaching. The one who comes before his initiator with a thought that, "I have brought before him certain knowledge which I already had and now I want more to be added," he is wrong, he should throw it away. The one who comes to his initiator with the thought that he must find out if it is right or wrong or he must find out what will happen, he is wasting his time and fooling himself. He will never gain by it. He could just as well have gone and done some business and got some money. What the initiator gives as an instruction, as an exercise, it must be taken just like the prescription of the doctor.
