When in ourselves there is inharmony, how can we spread harmony?

When in ourselves there is inharmony, how can we spread harmony? Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: It is harmony which makes beauty; beauty in itself has no meaning. An object which is called beautiful at a certain place and time is not beautiful at another place or another time.

Seek Him in all souls, good or bad, wise and foolish, attractive and unattractive; in the depths of each there is God. Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: As fruit ripens in the course of nature, so it is in the course of nature that the soul should mature; and it is no use being disappointed or disheartened about ourselves and about those near and dear to us, worrying because our husband, wife, father, or mother does not look at spiritual matters in the...

The knowledge of God is beyond man's reason; the secret of God is hidden in the knowledge of unity. Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: The knowledge of God is beyond man's reason. Man only perceives things he is capable of perceiving.

If you seek the good in every soul, you will always find it, for God is in all things; still more He is in all beings. Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: We must learn to see the beauty, it is not everyone who sees it, often the critical spirit is occupied in gazing at the object which lacks beauty, the more you look for beauty, the more you see it as a whole. It is seeing the vision in part that deludes, you look at the side of a man's nature that may... Sign in to see full entry.

There is no greater scripture than nature, for nature is life itself. Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: When we think of the various ways in which wisdom has been given out in legend, in poetry, in symbolism, and we find that in every stage of evolution the same story or legend, or poem or symbology holds a different meaning, by this, I do not mean to say that as a man looks he understands things differently at each stage of evolution, but I mean the...
