Broads Quote by Hazrat Inayat Khan

“The heart becomes wide by forgetting self, but narrow by thinking of the self and pitying one's self. To gain a wide and broad heart you must have something before you to look upon, and to rest your intelligence upon - and that something is the God-ideal.” quote by Hazrat Inayat Khan — Download Open image
