More From Hazrat Inayat Khan

Men perish with whispering sins-nay, with silent sins, sins that never tell the conscience that they are sins, as often with crying sins; and in hell there shall meet as many men that never thought what was sin, as that spent all their thoughts in the compassing of sin.
Men Whispering Cry
Enlightenment is man's leaving his self-caused immaturity. immaturity is the incapacity to use one's intelligence without the guidance of another. such immaturity is self-caused if it is not caused by lack of intelligence, but by lack of determination and courage to use one's intelligence without being guided by another. sapere aude! have the courage to use your own intelligence! is therefore the motto of the enlightenment.
Determination Men Self
We are not to look upon our sins as insignificant trifles. on the other hand, we are not to regard them as so terrible that we must despair. learn to believe that christ was given, not for picayune and imaginary transgressions, but for mountainous sins; not for one or two, but for all; not for sins that can be discarded, but for sins that are stubbornly ingrained.
Believe Hands Sins Not
The lord never came to deliver men from the consequences of their sins while yet those sins remained...yet men, loving their sins and feeling nothing of their dread hatefulness, have, consistent with their low condition, constantly taken this word concerning the lord to mean that he came to save them from the punishment of their sins.
Taken Mean Men
A bath in ganges undoubtedly absolves one of all sins; but what does that avail? they say that the sins perch on trees along the banks of the ganges. no sooner does the man come back from the holy waters that the old sins jump on his shoulders from the trees. the same old sins take possession of him again. he is hardly out of the waters before they fall upon him.
Fall Men Water
A comprehensive doctrine, either religious or secular, aspires to cover all of life. i mean, if it's a religious doctrine, it talks about our relation to god and the universe; it has an ordering of all the virtues, not only political virtues but moral virtues as well, including the virtues of private life, and the rest. now we may feel philosophically that it doesn't really cover everything, but it aims to cover everything, and a secular doctrine does also.

When our atheistically dominated supreme court removed the ten commandments from our halls, not a whimper was heard from the 95 million christians in this country, who still don't realize that their religious freedoms are being systematically removed without a fight.
Christian Country Religious
To live and work successfully with others requires more than faithfulness to one's concrete aims. it requires an intellectual commitment to a type of order in which, even on issues which to one are fundamental, others are allowed to pursue different ends. it is for this reason that to the liberal neither moral nor religious ideals are proper objects of coercion, while both conservatives and socialists recognize no such limits.
Religious Commitment Order
Use me, god. show me how to take who i am, who i want to be, and what i can do, and use it for a purpose greater than myself.

Whatever else the religious right may be, it is a bonanza for its opponents... reports of the great terror that is upon us are raising millions of dollars in fund appeals by planned parenthood, the american civil liberties union, the national organization for women, norman lear's people for the american way, and others who claim to believe that the religious right is the greatest peril to american democracy since joe mccarthy.
