About

Hazrat Inayat Khan was an Indian musician and Sufi teacher who brought the Sufi message to the West in 1910. He founded the International Sufi Movement and the Sufi Order, teaching a universal approach to mysticism that honored all religions. His writings on the mysticism of sound and music — drawing on his training as a master of the veena — remain influential in both spiritual and musical circles. He saw music as a direct path to the divine.
