The Githas - online class
1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month, 7:00 - 8:00 PM Eastern Time (North America)
Feb. 3rd and 17th, Mar. 3rd and 17th, Apr. 7th and 21st, 2026
We are continuing our online Githa series starting on Feb. 3rd. We will be covering the last chapter of Githas I, Meditation. Please spread the word to any murids you know who may be interested in studying the Githas.
The Githa papers are a course of study given by Hazrat Inayat Khan for the murid who is ready to prepare for the realization of the soul. The murid, having awakened, now journeys into that vision of a new world of spirit. The task before the murid is to develop an intuitive and natural awareness of the expansive levels on which the soul experiences life. The mind and emotions are attuned to allow the finer vibrations to be felt. The cause and effect of impressions and intentions are watched. The inner and outer life are brought into harmony. One’s motivation is sought out at its roots. One’s purpose is found in the re-homing of the soul in this life and in preparing it for the next.
We will contemplate the words of the Githa papers in this course, supported with practices that:
- seek to nourish the soul with the waters of life, of Spirit
- give the soul repose by accepting the enfolding embrace of the One Being
- stimulate the desire of the soul to witness and illuminate beauty, exercise nobility, excellence and mercy, and glorify the harmony of heaven and its echoes on earth
- allow the pure happiness of the soul in remembering its intimacy with the One
If time allows there may be sohbet (attuned sharing and listening).
This course is open to murids of the Inner School of the Inayatiyya who have been given the 4th or later initiations, or have the recommendation of their guide. A few years of experience with practices given by the Inner School is assumed.
