The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

Another person may wonder whether he ought to realize what spirituality is before he can become spiritual. He may think he has to disconnect himself from matter; he may think that spirit is the exalted substance, matter only the lower. Another person may tell you that he is taking up the spiritual path because he wants to be able to communicate with spirits and ghosts. Another may say; "I want to see things and hear voices that other people cannot hear. I want to be able to discern fairies, or angels, or spirits, or other invisible things which other people cannot see; something mysterious, something others do not know of or see." But if that is the motive for coming to the mystical, the spiritual path, then it is not for them! Discipleship is not needed for that.
