By this he touches that truth which is the ultimate goal, and which is the yearning of every soul. It is not only realization; it is a happiness which words cannot explain. It is a peace, the peace which is yearned for by every soul. And how does he attain to it? By practicing the presence of God; by realizing the oneness of the whole being; by working every moment of the day, conscioulsly or sub-consciously, holding the truth before his vision in spite of the waves of illusion which arise continually, diverting his glance from the absolute truth. The attitude of the Sufi towards all the different religions is one of respect. His religion is the service of humanity, and his only object of attainment is the realization of truth.—Hazrat Inayat Khan Published by Servire; Katwik, Holland © 1963; 1978 ISBN 90 6077 954 1
