Bowl of Saki for October 26


Bowl of Saki for October 26

IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH ABOUT ONE'S SELF THAN TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH OF HEAVEN AND HELL. --Hazrat Inayat Khan

Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis (Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti):

What are Heaven and Hell? They are the results of action, speech and thought -- they are *results* and not self-dependent. Every Hell and Heaven may be different, and the same condition can be Hell to one
and Heaven to another. Therefore we cannot understand them until we understand self -- and not nufs but the innermost being.

Sufis willingly surrender Heaven and Hell to God, considering it a joy when Allah is present even in the midst of Hell and a loss when Allah is absent even in the bosom of Paradise.
