Bowl of Saki, March 26, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

Man is closer to God than the fishes are to the ocean. Bowl of Saki, March 26, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: One day Inayat was praying on the roof of the house, offering his prayers and he thought to himself that there had not been an answer yet to all the prayers he had offered to God and he did not know where God was to hear his prayers and he could not reconcile himself to going on praying to the God whom he knew not.

Bowl of Saki, March 25, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

He who is filled with the knowledge of names and forms has no capacity for the knowledge of God. Bowl of Saki, March 25, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: A man filled with earthly knowledge -- and what he calls learning is often only the knowledge of names and forms -- has no capacity for the knowledge of truth or God.

Bowl of Saki, March 23, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

All earthly knowledge is as a cloud covering the sun. Bowl of Saki, March 23, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: Truth is the very self of man. Truth is the divine element in man. Truth is every soul's seeking.

Bowl of Saki, March 22, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

There is one Teacher, God Himself; we are all His pupils. Bowl of Saki, March 22, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: According to the Sufi point of view there is only one teacher, and that teacher is God Himself.
