What science cannot declare, art can suggest; what art suggests silently, poetry speaks aloud; but what poetry fails to explain in words, music can express. Whoever knows the mystery of vibrations indeed knows all

What science cannot declare, art can suggest; what art suggests silently, poetry speaks aloud; but what poetry fails to explain in words, music can express. Whoever knows the mystery of vibrations indeed knows all things.

Hazrat Inayat Khan
Art, Vibrations, Mystery

The mystery of sound is mysticism; the harmony of life is religion. The knowledge of vibrations is metaphysics, the analysis of atoms is science, and their harmonious grouping is art. The rhythm of form is poetry, and the rhythm of sound is music. This shows that music is the art of arts and the science of allsciences; and it contains the fountain of all knowledge within itself.

Hazrat Inayat Khan “The Sufi Message of Hazrat Inayat Khan: The Mysticism of Sound, Music, The Power of the Word, Cosmic Language”, Library of Alexandria

From the metaphysical point of view there is nothing that can touch the formless except the art of music which in itself is formless.

Hazrat Inayat Khan (1996). “The Mysticism of Sound and Music”, p.80, Shambhala Publications

What we call music in our everyday language is only a miniature, which our intelligence has grasped from that music or harmony of the whole universe which is working behind everything, and which is the source and origin of nature. It is because of this that the wise of all ages have considered music to be a sacred art. For in music the seer can see the picture of the whole universe; and the wise can interpret the secret and nature of the working of the whole universe in the realm of music.
