Hazrat Inayat Khan:
The Smiling Forehead
Go back
Mysticism, Psychology
By forehead is meant man's expression. The smiling forehead is the pleasant expression; it depends solely upon man's attitude to life.
The idea of the Sufi is that however religious a person may be, without love he is nothing. It is the same with one who has studied thousands of books; without love he has learned nothing.
In what little way love can express itself, it is what the Persians call "the laughing forehead."—Hazrat Inayat Khan
