Spiritual Liberty w/ Pir Zia Inayat Khan

As part of our ongoing study of the Sufi Message Volumes of Pir-o-Murshid Hazrat Inayat Khan, we explore Volume V—Spiritual Liberty.  

Spiritual Liberty comprises several early works, including the only book of teachings ever written by Hazrat Inayat Khan, namely A Sufi Message of Spiritual Liberty, published in his first year in London, 1914. Also included are Aqibat: Life After Death; The Phenomenon of the Soul; Love, Human and Divine; Pearls from the Ocean Unseen; and Metaphysics.

From Pir Zia Inayat Khan’s introduction to the volume: “To read volume five is to be transported to the salon of the London khankah. Outside, air sirens shriek at intervals and the mood is bleak. Inside, however, an atmosphere of melody and luminosity is palpable. The inner world has a message for the outer world, but it is a message no ideology can express. Evocation is its allusive language.”

This six-part series was offered by Pir Zia Inayat Khan in the fall of 2023 via Zoom. Includes nine hours of audio and video + class notes.

The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan—Spiritual Liberty, Volume V is available from Suluk Press.
