The great teachers of humanity become streams of love. Bowl of Saki, April 15, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid 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.

If you want to understand, you will

He who wants to understand, will understand. Bowl of Saki, April 13, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: In India it is considered a great sin to awaken anyone who is asleep.

Sincerely of worship

It does not matter in what way a person offers his respect and his reverence to the deity he worships; it matters only how sincere he is in his offering. Bowl of Saki, April 11, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: The forms of worship of all the different religions are necessarily different.

Truth

When a person looks at the ocean, he can only see that part of it which comes within his range of vision; so it is with the truth. Bowl of Saki, April 10, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: As there is water in the depths of the earth, so there is truth at the bottom of all things, false or true. In some places, one has to dig deep; in other places, only a short distance; that is the only difference. But there is no place where there is no water. One may have to dig...
