About the Author
Hazrat Inayat Kahn, founder of the Sufi order in the West, was born in India in 1882. A master of classical Indian music by the age of twenty, he relinquished a brilliant career to devote himself to the spiritual path. In 1920, acting upon the guidance of his teacher, he became one of the first teachers of the Sufi tradition in the West. For a decade and a half he travelled throughout Europe and the US giving lectures and guiding an ever-growing group of seekers. In 1926, he returned to India where he died the following year.

The Ideal Life,
By Anyanwu Blueskies (America) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mastery Through Accomplishment (Paperback)
If your goal in this lifetime is to live the ideal life, this is where you need to start. I have yet to read a book which satisfied my yearning to understand more about what life is about. Having always believed that it was possible to make it in the world without selling my soul, this book was a definate plus in how to accomplish that goal. This book covers the bases as far as directing you towards the thoughts within your mind which you need to focus on, as well as those you can do without, and eventually challenges you to be better than you thought you were or believed you could be. 5+stars!

Discovering and achieving the purpose of your life,
By John Amin Happel (Thornton, CO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mastery Through Accomplishment (Paperback)
Master Through Accomplishment is a collection in essay format of multiple talks and papers by Hazrat Inayat Khan (HIK). HIK presents detailed, inspired and thoughtful methods that anyone can use in accomplishing their goals in life. Along with excellent advice on how to achieve one's ends, criteria to use in the selection of worthy goals are also given. These seemingly simple ideas when implemented in daily life will have a profoundly beneficial effect upon the reader's spiritual and material well being. Concentration, insight, hope and wisdom are all addressed by the author. For instance HIK says;"Concentration is the chief means of attainment. Concentration does not mean sitting and thinking of a certain thing, but it means holding a certain idea or object in the mind at all times. The result of concentration depends upon how much one loves the object of attainment." He then goes on to describe how one can go about learning to concentrate. If you are interested in learning how to achieve peace and happiness while at the same time leading a more fulfilling life this is a book for you.
