Bowl of Saki for December 26
LOVE IS UNLIMITED, BUT IT NEEDS SCOPE TO EXPAND AND RISE; WITHOUT THAT SCOPE LIFE IS UNHAPPY.--Hazrat Inayat Khan
Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis (Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti):
Involution is really involution of love or Ishk. Accommodation was made which produced mind. Through mind, soul would see, but mind also created thoughts which proved confusing. Love does not think,
yet understands thought. Love hampered by thought cannot rise and expand. Love, free from the bondage of self, can expand or contract without hindrance and without confusion. These stages of the heart are experienced by the mystics and form the spiritual life.
