Words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels. Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: Among all the valuable things of this world, the word is the most precious.

Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: From Sigoli, where the train journey ends, [Inayat and his father] had six days journey through the forest.

The lover of nature is the true worshipper of God. Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: A true worshipper of God sees His presence in all forms, and thus in respecting others he respects God.
