Creating the Person

Description

It is an act of love, in our time, to take upon oneself the creation of a truly human personality. Hazrat Inayat Khan gives an introduction to a range of qualities which are necessary for the accomplishment of this work. Will power, gratitude, self-control, gentleness and self-respect are among the topics addressed, along with directions that may enable the reader to develop these qualities in everyday life.

"In the lectures that make up Creating the Person, Hazrat Inayat Khan has traced the essential lineaments of a wise demeanor. Ethically exacting but never doctrinaire, Hazrat’s teachings portray a manner of being that is within reach of all of us if we would only aspire to it and stay the course." from the foreword by Pir Zia Inayat-Khan
