The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

In Hyderabad there was a dervish who had the habit of smoking very strong hashish. When he let the smoke out of his mouth he used to look into it and to answer any questions that were put to him. If someone asked him, "Where is my uncle at present?" he would say, Your uncle? Calcutta... such and such bazaar... now I turn to the left... the second house. Your uncle is sitting in his room. His servant is at his side and his child is standing before him." Whatever he was asked he answered. Did he see it without eyes? No, his consciousness had not its external self before it and therefore it was able to see through the eyes of another, through the eyes of the uncle or any other.
