Bowl of Saki, April 5, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

God speaks to the ears of every heart, but it is not every heart that hears Him. Bowl of Saki, April 5, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: Spirituality has become far removed from material life, and so God is far removed from humanity. Therefore, one cannot any more conceive of God speaking through a man, through someone like oneself.

Bowl of Saki, April 4, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

To give sympathy is sovereignty, to desire it from others is captivity. Bowl of Saki, April 4, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: Although sometimes it gives a tender sensation in the heart to say, 'Oh, how poorly I am', and it is soothing to hear from someone, 'Oh, I am so sorry you are not well', yet I should think that one would prefer if another thing were said in sympathy, namely, 'I am so happy to see you are so well'.

Sympathy is the root of religion, and so long as the spirit of sympathy is living in your heart, you have the light of religion. Bowl of Saki, April 2, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: Those great souls who have brought the message of God to humanity from time to time, like Buddha, Krishna, Jesus Christ, Moses, Abraham or Zarathushtra, were well known as most learned men.

l of Saki, April 1, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

When one praises the beauty of God, one's soul is filled with bliss. Bowl of Saki, April 1, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan "Why does God need praise from me? Who am I that I should offer Him praise?" True, we can never praise Him enough; never can our praise be sufficient, but our souls are blessed with the impression of the Glory of God whenever we praise Him. The soul could praise God every moment and yet wanting to praise Him yet more, it is constantly hungering... Sign in to see full entry.
