Tales (The Collected works of Hazrat Inayat Khan)

In true Sufi tradition, Hazrat Inayat Khan used teaching stories as a means of making his spiritual and psychological insights more accessible and memorable for his disciples. The first section is drawn from dervish parables, fables, legends of ancient gods, kings and heroes, stories of prophets, sinners and saints. The second section contains experiences and anecdotes of Inayat Khan's own life and travels, from youthful journeys among the palaces and shrines of turn-of-the-century India, to encounters with the great and the humble all over the world.
