Your work in life must be your religion, whatever your occupation may be. Bowl of Saki, October 19, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: The purpose of life is to become more living, to allow the soul to live more, and that is the limit given by Christ when he says, 'Raise your light high'.

The principles of mysticism rise from the heart of man; they are learnt by intuition and proved by reason. Bowl of Saki, October 18, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: One might ask why man has lost that intuitive faculty.

By loving, forgiving, and serving, it is possible for your whole life to become one single vision of the sublime beauty of God. Bowl of Saki, October 16, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: If one would realize that the world of God, His splendor and magnificence, are to be seen in the wise and the foolish, in the good and the bad, then one would think tolerantly and reverently of all mankind...

The innermost being of man is the real being of God.

The innermost being of man is the real being of God. Bowl of Saki, October 14, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: The earth supplies all the things that man's nature demands except one, and that is his source; and therefore man remains dissatisfied all through life in spite of everything that he may obtain in answer to his desires: pleasure, comfort, rank, or wealth.
