The Bowl of Saki Commentary

Commentary for:

Words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels.

— Hazrat Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan

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

For such words can never pass away in the here and now or hereafter. Even if we consider that soul will exist in the midst of God without the covering of the heart or mind or body, then will those words rain down in mercy upon suffering humanity and aid others in their struggle for liberation. Thus every mantram helps not only the devotee but is valuable for every person-those on earth, those yet to come, and those already gone.
