Bowl of Saqi for January 15
YES, TEACH YOUR PRINCIPLES OF GOOD,
BUT DO NOT THINK TO LIMIT GOD WITHIN THEM.
THE GOODNESS OF EACH MAN IS PECULIAR TO HIMSELF.
-- Hazrat Inayat Khan
Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis:
For what we call "good" comes from the favorable effects
caused beneath the mind-mesh. It is our name, our thought,
and not the lasting Divine Thought, which gives them life.
God is the Essence of All Qualities, and is not affected by
man's thought upon any quality.
mind-mesh....

As an added note of interest, January 15th is the Urs of
Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis - the date of his passing from this
Earthly plane (in 1971) and of his rejoining with the Beloved.
