Vilayat Inayat Khan (Urdu: ولايت عنایت خان) (June 19, 1916 – June 17, 2004) was a teacher of meditation and of the traditions of the East Indian Chishti Order of Sufism. His teaching derived from the tradition of his father, Hazrat Inayat Khan, founder of The Sufi Order in the West, combined with western culture. He taught in the tradition of Universal Sufism, which views all religions as rays of light from the same sun.
In 1975 he founded the Abode of the Message, which serves as the central residential community of the Sufi Order International, a conference and retreat center, and a center of esoteric study.[1]
His parents met at the New York City ashram of American yogi Pierre Bernard, his mother's half-brother.[2] His sister was Noor Inayat Khan and his son is Zia Inayat Khan.
