The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

If the warning of an accident really comes from another person's thought, can we then avoid danger by using our thought-power to counteract the other person's thought? We can if we know how to do it; for that is the practice of denial. Self-denial apart, we again come to the work that is done in the Sufi method: to deny even the thoughts and impressions which we do not wish to come to us. It is not allowing our minds to be stained by those impressions which we do not desire that helps us to avoid them. We must rise above every impression that is against us. Only, what is needed is to know the science, that we may act wisely towards others. Suppose we rise above it, or we do not care for it, or we do not believe it, yet we may still do harm to others. But if we are careful and conscientious about what impression we make on others, that will make a great difference in the lives of our friends.
