Quotes from Our Pir O Murshid

[Shamsuddin Jim Norton]

The mystery of sound is mysticism; the harmony of life is religion. The knowledge of vibrations is metaphysics, the analysis of atoms is science, and their harmonious grouping is art. The rhythm of form is poetry, and the rhythm of sound is music. This shows that music is the art of arts and science of all sciences; and it contains the fountain of all knowledge within itself.
-Inayat Khan
