Soon , a year before my initiation and a few months after discovering Hazrat Inayat Khan's message vols, I had a "travelling at the speed of light" authentic vision, on the night of Jan 19, 1978, with 5 levels many stories etc. I sat with Pir for yrs in the Alps for 2 summer months at a time, at least, luckily being able to attend all the lectures on staff as the time-keeping bell-ringer.... Such amazing times, Pir would often speak of wanting to do a retreat just on light.... My first practice given to me by Sheikh Rabia Joyce Purcell, M.B.E, on Easter Sunday morning, at wondrous Barton Farm, Bradford on Avon UK, after giving me the 3 names to choose from: Quddus, Ariel, & Robin the Goodfellow., was Ya Noor, or Nur, uncreated light..... we spent much time doing light practices, to say the least, on top of a 7000ft Mountain 6 miles from Italy in the French Alps.... Early morning bringing in the light, ultra violet, into the chakras, etc.... I would like to just keep this playing in the background of my daily life so that I can reactivate the 28 yr old synapsis of this deteriorating brain lolol.... For a normal 2 week retreat translated by Pir V real time into English, French, or German He would go through the enlightenment practices of all the major religious traditions, for a few days each one. There would usually be 3 two-week silent retreats, very powerful. Many friends.....

Fascinating! What a wonderful experience to be physically with the man. It must have been transformational and really intense. Since 1994 I've been "spiritual" in the sense of having various numinous experiences both with drugs and without. Hindu mystics mainly have grabbed my attention. I was totally wrapped up in a big cult based in NYC for 5 years and listening to this guy helped me to find the courage to weave my way out of the "Guru trap" without abandoning God. It must have been deeply engaging to be able to be with Pir Vilayat personally. I live in Canada and never felt the need to see Vilayat Khan although I'm near upstate NY. Thankfully his voice and teachings remain on places like KZitem for all to hear. But what a wonderful thing to be able to have been with him personally. God bless you. I'm sure you were deeply blessed in countless ways. His teachings continue to amaze me. He has such sophistication spiritually speaking...Such modern insight. Not just another "guru" stuck in an old tradition but a very creative teacher. The way he is able to distill the essence of it all and explain it so well is fascinating. It wouldn't be a stretch at all to consider him perhaps the greatest modern exponent of Eastern mysticism who actually lived his teaching. Profound stuff! Thanks for writing all of this. For sharing. Multi blessings to you friend.

And speaking of aging well...Lol! If you can age as well as this man did you'll be like fine wine! I wouldn't worry about your brain. I think you're probably in better shape mentally than the average teenager is! God bless you abundantly. : )
