The Purpose of Life (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781161404814)

""The Purpose of Life"" by Inayat Khan is a spiritual guidebook that explores the fundamental question of why we are here on Earth. Khan draws on the teachings of Sufism, a mystical branch of Islam, to offer insights and wisdom on the nature of existence, the human experience, and the role of spirituality in our lives. He argues that the purpose of life is to realize our true nature as spiritual beings, and that this can be achieved through practices such as meditation, self-reflection, and compassion towards others. Khan also discusses the challenges and obstacles that can hinder our spiritual growth, such as ego, attachment, and fear. Throughout the book, he offers practical advice and guidance for those seeking to live a more fulfilling and purposeful life. ""The Purpose of Life"" is a thought-provoking and inspiring read for anyone interested in spirituality, personal growth, and the search for meaning in life.1927. The first thing that a seeker after truth must realize, is the purpose of life. No sooner does a soul begin to feel sober from the intoxication of life, than the first thing it asks itself is: �������What is the purpose of my life?������� each soul has its own purpose, but in the end all purposes resolve into one purpose, and it is that purpose which is sought by the mystic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
