I read a story the same day about Inayat Khan but I can't find it in the link provided. I think it was something like... He was celebrating around another human being, and tried to show his excitement and said something like "We are brothers!" And the man, possibly a solider, was so insulted by Inayat Khan he asked him how he could dare equate himself as his brother- and Inayat Khan, instead of arguing or presenting the man any wisdom from another point of view simply bowed his head and said, "I'm sorry- I am your servant." The man was pleased. And that was the end of it.
I have such a large Ego that this lesson really blew me away. Especially because I hold Inayat Khan in such high regard.
