Bowl of Saki for April 11
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.?
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis (Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti):
Because respect and reverence are determined by the degree of sincerity and selflessness and not by outer act. Thus in the story of the widow's mite, about whom Christ said that she had given the most to God, it was because she had given herself and not because of any
mathematical proportion of tithe. So we find many manners of prayer and ceremonials of worship and all names and forms, but these are mostly for the convenience of man. For God's sake we need sincerity,
that is to say, the prayer of the heart which is the real and full prayer.
