The soul is first born into the false self, it is blind; in the true self the soul opens its eyes. Bowl of Saki, April 21, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Hazrat Inayat Khan: Our greatest enemy is ourself.

It is the surface of the sea that makes waves and roaring breakers; the depth is silent. Bowl of Saki, April 17, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Hazrat Inayat Khan: The bubbles are to be found on the surface of the sea. The depth of the sea is free from bubbles.

Bowl of Saki, April 15, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Hazrat Inayat Khan: Forgiveness is a stream of love which washes away all impurities wherever it flows. By keeping this spring of love, which is in the heart of man, running, man is able to forgive, however great the fault of his fellow man may seem. One who cannot forgive closes his heart.
