Sufism, Religion, Spirituality Assembled here are six early works by the revered twentieth-century Sufi sage Hazrat Inayat Khan. The collection takes its name from the first of the six, A Sufi Message of Spiritual Liberty, the only book of teachings Hazrat personally wrote, all of his other published teachings consisting, as they do, of transcripts of his discourses. The additional works collected in this volume-Aqibat: Life after Death; The Phenomenon of the Soul; Love, Human and Divine; Pearls from the Ocean Unseen; and Metaphysics-derive from Hazrat's classes and table talk during the First World War, when he was living in London and his Sufi Order was first taking shape. The eponymous A Sufi Message of Spiritual Liberty is a concise introduction to the Sufi tradition. Aqibat, The Phenomenon of the Soul, and Metaphysics offer insights that anticipate and complement the teachings in the later and better-known collection The Soul, Whence and Whither. Love, Human and Divine presents the philosophy of the Sufi "School of Love," embroidered with stories from Eastern romances. Pearls from the Ocean Unseen is a patchwork of brief discourses on various spiritual subjects. Together, the contents of volume five evoke the flame of love and wisdom that burned brightly amongst a little-known circle of initiates in London as the world shivered in the shadow of the most terrible war that had ever befallen it. The flame has not dimmed with time; for the seekers of today, it remains a brilliant torch.
