Bowl of Saki, July 23, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

Warmth melts, while cold freezes. A drop of ice in a warm place spreads and covers a larger space, whereas a drop of water in a cold place freezes and becomes limited.

Bowl of Saki, July 20, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

Every blow in life pierces the heart and awakens our feelings to sympathize with others; and every swing of comfort lulls us to sleep, and we become unaware of all. Bowl of Saki, July 20, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: 'If the soul is awakened, how does it awake, and who awakens it?'

Bowl of Saki, July 19, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

The soul's true happiness lies in experiencing the inner joy, and it will never be fully satisfied with outer, seeming pleasures. Its connection is with God, and nothing short of perfection will ever satisfy it. Bowl of Saki, July 19, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: People say, 'Let us enjoy ourselves and be happy; there is plenty of sorrow in the world without choosing to mourn,' and they strive after happiness in whatever way they can. But these passing and... Sign in to see full entry.
