At every step of evolution, man's realization of God changes.
Bowl of Saki, March 16, by Hazrat Inayat Khan
Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan:
There is a time when toys are treasures. But the child who cries for a toy comes to an age when he gives it away. And at every step in a man's evolution the values of power and position and wealth change in his eyes. And so as he evolves there arises in him a spirit of renunciation which may be called the Spirit of God. Gradually he recognizes the real value of those fair and lovely qualities of the spirit that change not.

In selfishness there is an illusion of profit,
but in the end the profit attained by selfishness proves to be worthless.
Life is the principal thing to consider,
and true life is the inner life,
the realization of God, the consciousness of one's spirit.
When the human heart becomes conscious of God it turns into the sea and it spreads;
it extends the waves of its love to friend and foe.
Spreading further and further it attains perfection.
