Bowl of Saki for November 13
WHEN SPEECH IS CONTROLLED, THE EYES SPEAK; THE GLANCE SAYS WHAT WORDS CAN NEVER SAY. Hazrat Inayat Khan
Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis (Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti):
If one studies telegraphy, it will be found that the transmitted word or letter is formed by breaks in the current. In other words, energy is transmitted until and unless there is a break, and by these breaks word and letter symbols are formed. The same principle holds true in thought transmission, whether by speech or telepathy. The Divine Energy is always present; speech comes by breaks in the mental magnetism or electricity, by making shadow in the intellectual light. Thus words are formed which convey thoughts.
Pure thought is much deeper and cannot well be expressed into words. Nevertheless by a flow of spiritual magnetism through the lights, this purer light flashes out from the inner being. Without word or gesture, when there is attunement between minds and hearts, the
thoughts flash back and forward by "makes" and "breaks" in it. This is the same principle as in telegraphy but the vibrations are much more subtle.
