A pure life and a clean conscience are as bread and wine for the soul.<\/p>\n

( from Sayings of Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan: Part 1 – Gayan (Celestial Voices), Chapter 3 – Boulas (Kindled words)<\/a> )<\/p>\n

A pure life is the term used to express the effort to keep our spiritual being untainted by the false values of the worldly life. It is the constant search for the Original Self, the desire to reach it, and the means employed to recover it, which alone can truly be called purity of life. … When this purity is reached we live in virtue. Virtue is not a thing which we express or experience from time to time; our life itself is virtue. Every moment that God is absent from the consciousness is considered by the sage to be a sin; for at that moment the purity of the heart is poisoned. It is lack of life which is sin: and it is purity of life which is virtue. It is of this purity that Jesus Christ spoke when he said, ‘Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God<\/u><\/i>.’<\/p>\n

Commentary by Murshid S.A.M. (Sufi Ahmed Murad) Samuel L. Lewis<\/strong><\/h4>\n

By the pure life is meant a life free from any attachments, a heart filled with love, a mind illuminated by Supreme Thought. The clean conscience is also dependent upon Unity, knowing neither good nor evil, for as soon as action is so divided whatever elevates also creates accommodation for depression and thus deprives the soul of happiness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
