Read an excerpt from Introducing Spirituality into Counseling and Therapy:

“It is the interrelatonship between beings—between all being, whether they be animals, vegetables, or even the planets or the sun, but particularly between people—that triggers off unfoldment. The beauty of our life is in the extraordinary encounter between the different parts of the totality. As Hazrat Inayat Khan says, God meets Himself in the meeting of each person with each person. This is the most sacred thing that can ever happen—like the meeting of two worlds. Even though they have the same origin, the DNA of each person has been narrowed down in the course of time, so that although the universe is in each one of them, it is becoming more unique in its way. Not only the encounter of, but the maintaining of the relationship between two people, is the very impetus that triggers off transformation in our being.

We are able to communicate with people all the time, and not necessarily only by talking with them; we must be able to carry beings in our souls or our hearts.”
