The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

Again, what is this direction and how may one call it? It is the same direction that one may call Christ. But it has its work in all parts of the world, and if the people of some parts call it by another name, are they wrong? It is only another name. You may ask me what determines the destiny of man to be included in this direction: his birth, his rank, his inheritance, or a special education? Perhaps some may give you the reason of many years continual development from life to life. But to avoid complications and make things simple, as is always the tendency of the mystic, I would say, "What determines one piece of wood to be made into the floor under one's feet and another piece of the same wood the ceiling over one's head?"
