The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

When man begins to say, "I love everybody" you can be sure he loves nobody. But when he says, "I love my mother, my father, my son, my daughter, my friend, or my beloved," then you can believe that he has taken his first step on the path of love. Can anyone in the world claim love and at the same time know love? The moment one knows what love is one loses the claim. One can only say, "love" as long as one does not know what it is. Before saying, "love" one must first show it by jumping into the fire.
