Additional quotes by Meher Ali Shah

Single-minded rememberance of Allah is the supreme source of felicity and happiness.

The Dervish should devote himself to the rememberane of Allah, rather than hanker after money or rather worldly gain.

Observance of the Holy Prophet's (Muhammad) Shariah and of his personal example (Sunnah) has precedence over everything else.

A Dervish is one who opposes whatever his baser self impels him to do. - Meher Ali Shah
