Bowl of Saki, March 30, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: I have seen with my own eyes souls who have attained saintliness and who have reached to great perfection; and yet such a soul will stand before an idol of stone with another, with a fellow man, and worship, not letting him know that he is in any way more advanced than other men, keeping himself in a humble guise, not making any...
