The three Pirs of our order: L-R: Hazrat Inayat Khan, Pir Vilayat and Pir Zia

Below are links to pages on this site where you will find information that might inspire you or help deepen your understanding of the teachings of the Inayatiyya Order. Some of these links point to resources on this site while other links will take you elsewhere.

At present, the site contains links to inspirations from the three people who have been Pirs in the Inayatiyya: Hazrat Inayat Khan, the founder of the Inayatiyya; Pir Vilayat, his son and spiritual successor; and Pir Zia, Pir Vilayat's son and spiritual successor.

You will also find a few Other Useful Links that might prove to be helpful. In the future, this section will contain links to teachings from other spiritual traditions. More teachings will be added in the future.

If you would like to have something added, please let me know. While I can make no promises, I will consider all suggestions.
