The Bowl of Saki Commentary

Commentary for:

True justice cannot be perceived until the veil of selfishness has been removed from the eyes.

— Hazrat Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan

Commentary from Hazrat Murshid SAM (Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti, Samuel L. Lewis):

So long as nufs has control there is not a balance, there is not observation of law, and certainly there is no pure love. For during that condition when nufs has control, all events are related to a thought-whether such events have any actual connection with that thought or not-and a set of relations is substituted for a set of actualities. Justice, mercy, all morals, and all wisdom are the natural aspects of a life undeterred by these false relations.
